That's lucky CJ, I tell you snow is not happening like in these pics in Amsterdam too often. generally it comes down and disappears within 10 minutes. Funny, my first trip to the Dam in 89, it was -10c and snowed the whole time...what a New Year that was!!! MemoriesGreat pics!!
The first time my wife ever saw snow was in Amsterdam. A memory well worth remembering ...
"It's so cold"!! Heh, wait till you're all wet... Thank G*D for coffeeshops and hot soup! Mmmm.
my wifes antipodean, so yeah, she was freaked when we got snow for the first time....like you say, quite amusing to see.Yes, we found that out ourselves. The front desk at the Hotel the very first morning said how unusual snow was in Adam. My wife was simply amazed at the snow, and of course I was blown away at watching an adult encounter it the first time.
It was NOT what she expected ..
Going for Xmas? It's a great time to go. i've always enjoyed Europe in the winter.

Xmas is a great time to visit the Dam (it's actually very quiet so you get great deals at hotels!!!)
I am going to Scotland for Xmas, back home to Amsterdam for New Year.
Most of it has been done now, although they are still working on the building (I use to love cycling through the archway there (always someone playing a tune or two). They have now moved the Stedlijk museum which has an expo at Schiphol I believe....they are also rebuilding that http://www.stedelijkindestad.nl/
This has been alot of fun listening to you guys DST and CJ ....living the exciting adventures of going to Amsterdam in the fall or winter just seems wonderful. My wife and I want to go for a cannabis cup or just be there.......the smoke cafe...............real yule tide stuff. Tahoe winters pics soon, my old stomping grounds. But in the spirit of the Holidays I thought you both might relate to this......Your friend budy "The Elf" budman
And more importantly - very nice looking root system
