Greetings

These are shots from a two-day trip to Amsterdam. I suppose this isn't terribly novel for my first post, given how well documented this city seems to be on Skyscraper Page, but I'll come back with more exotic urban shots shortly. I hope you enjoy it.

I agree with Shiro! great job and you brought back some great memories from2 years ago

Thanks Shiro! It was a great trip, but not in the way I thought it would be. Things I thought I'd love turned out to be disappointing and I ended up loving stuff that I hadn't even anticipated. In any case, Amsterdam was a very interesting, impressive city

Great shots!

Are 23 through 26 taken out in the IJburg, or somewhere else, entirely?

BTW, I like that the photos are small enough for those of us with slower computers.

Thanks for all the nice comments!

LMich: To my own shame, I was planning to go all the way to IJburg but, as I was battling a furious hangover, I only made it as far out as the eastern docklands before I gave up.

23 through 26 are actually taken here.
