Amsterdam - Day 3

Hi! Welcome to day 3 of our Amsterdam visit. This morning we got up a little later because it was Sunday. We had picked up pastries last night for breakfast for a morning snack. We were going to head to the Anne Frank house but I expect it won't open till 9.  I was right. We packed up a few things to be ready to check out upon our return. The walk to the Anne Frank Monument was quiet and different. No bikes, no people, no cars, very weird. But enjoyable to see the city this peaceful. We arrived at the Anne Frank House upon opening at 9am. Although there is no furniture left in the rooms, the videos and pictorals really help to give you a sense of what the family went through. When we walked through the secret passage behind the bookcase and then you realize it was a different world. You must read the book to understand everything they went through. We headed back toward the hotel and decided on coffee & a croissant in a small cafe. They had a big fat, furry cat that kept us company. Now people are starting to come back into reality. We headed back & checked out of the Hotel. A short taxi ride to the port of Amsterdam to our Viking River Cruise ship. 
Well our room is on the lowest deck - below water and is about 125 Sqft. Tiny. But we'll live. Also no one is under the age of 65. Except me and my cousin. What fun! We are docked here overnight so I took her back to see the Anne Frank House and the Floating Flower Market till the rains came. Yes you can buy tulip bulbs & Cannibis seeds at the same place. Hummm. I'll pass for now. Back to the ship for dinner, a presentation on our days on the river, and early sleep. C u 2mro!
