Amsterdam- A Darn Good Time!

Previously, I posted my "Birds of Amsterdam"
pictorial, showing 15 or so different types of birds I photographed during a visit to The Netherlands in December. This post showcases many of the other things Alesia and I did during the three days we had together in this old European city.  




Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport is quite a complex with a large shopping mall and an easy inside walk to some hotels. 


Our hotel, the Hilton Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, was big and beautiful, and as the name suggests, very close to the city's Schiphol Airort. Check out the curling sheet in the lobby shown below. That’s what the sport’s court or playing surface is called, I just learned.
