Well, except maybe the prostitution.... :) We stayed clear of the party scene on all but one night, so most of my memories of Amsterdam are the typical things you think of - canals, bicycles, pretty row houses. I loved being there and I'd go back in a heartbeat!Sarah Shumatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08178401162208967646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3989837755018110330.post-13633738125626705252014-03-21T17:10:10.343+04:002014-03-21T17:10:10.343+04:00It does seem to be known as a place to party and h...It does seem to be known as a place to party and have a good time ... but it is nice to read about the other side.

I think we've talked about this before, but Amsterdam has always been one of my "oh, we'll get there eventually" places but I think it needs to move up the list!<br /><br />maybe because I'm an art history person or because I'm not a huge scene person, but I'm with you - when I think of Amsterdam, I think of the canals and the bikes and the tulips and the painting and things! A while ago, a travel blogger I sometimes read posted about her experiences in Amsterdam and EVERYTHING revolved around the cafés. Honestly, it made me kind of sad. Like, if you want to smoke pot and party, fine, but there's SO MUCH MORE to the city than that!Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16738069688903435772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3989837755018110330.post-85174730765175852322014-03-19T00:36:08.278+04:002014-03-19T00:36:08.278+04:00Wow - you had amazing weather!

It's a beautiful city, lots to do and you're right...get out of the center and into some of the quieter neighborhoods and parks and it's bliss. There are some really great markets and restaurants and the vibe is always good.http://inspiringtravellers.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04897410155593875654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3989837755018110330.post-6708054521353310632014-03-17T08:09:42.745+04:002014-03-17T08:09:42.745+04:00that's so funny because when I went to visit L...that's so funny because when I went to visit Liz, we were walking around and I smelled weed and only then did I remember that Amsterdam is so popular for that! <br /><br />I just love Amsterdam though.
