Amsterdam

Relaxing in the airport after spending the morning walking around Amsterdam. Beautiful city. We arrived by train as the city was just waking up. It was pitch dark, and nothing was open, so we walked through the dark streets, taking pictures, and waiting for the sun to come up. We make it to museum square and found the only open cafe where we had great eggs and coffee. We wandered over to the Rijksmuseum and were blown away by Rembrandt, Vermeer, and Jan Steen. Then we walked back to the station, poking our heads into a coffee shop for the aroma, and walking through the red light district, but I think it was a bit early for that crowd.

It was great to just be a tourist for a few hours and not think about bandwidth, marketing templates, or anything work-related. Very happy to be headed home. Big hug coming, kids! Be ready!
