Der Amstel Dam Burst















Got done at a reasonable hour so Mike and I decided to go for a jaunt downtown.

Turns out as we were just approaching the red light district the great dam in the sky burst and we were caught in a somewhat biblical downpour.
I was sensible enough to borrow a brolly from the hotel but as Mike didn't we ended up pretty soaked. Dove into a restuarant for dinner then made our way back to the hotel.

The city despite the rain is just enchanting.

Ooo, lovely. Too bad about Mike getting wet, but at least you kids had the sense to just go inside and eat something yummy. Sounds deliciously cozy to me.
