prettygoodyearToday my sister, mom and me went to Amsterdam to shop and just explore the city. Weather was blissful, and it was just a lovely day all in all.
Next to the central station is a ferry dock where you can take a ferry across "Het IJ" for free. Mom and me took the train to Amsterdam, my sister by car. She parked her car at the other side of "Het IJ" for free and then took the free ferry to Amsterdam Central Station. While waiting I took this photo of the old Shell building and also the new Eye building, where you can eat and drink and it's also got a lot to do with movies and such, I think.
The dock, looking over Het IJ and also all sorts of newly build apartments.
Yay, free ferry!
Extremely cool art on a wall. If you're not from around, you have no idea what it means. Albert Heijn however is our most famous, and oldest, supermarket. Hence the bag and logo, and also name. I loved it!
Yeah, bad lightning and all, but this was lunch for 3 at Vlaamsch Broodhuys which is AMAZINGLY good! I didn't eat anything else the rest of the day, haha.
At the end of the day all three of us took the ferry to the other side to have some dinner (which I skipped in the end). Lovely view over the old docks and Amsterdam.
Central Station to the right, Shell and Eye building at the left. Also, closer look of Central Station.
And the day ended with a lovely sunset seen and shot through the train window.
