Queensday!! - Everyone in Holland was doing that!

Greetings from NY. The girls have asked me to blog to you and add a video about Queensday. I have finally recovered enough from this trip to find the time and have the energy!

Here are two videos from the day. This one is all of us hanging out Haarlem before we made out way in to Amsterdam for the true party! NOBODY IS DOING THAT!


This next one shows the boats on the canals. We stood on the
Prinsengracht (Prince's Canal) which is the fourth and the longest of the main canals in Amsterdam. After being there for about an hour we realized we were standing right in front of Anne Frank's house.




Thanks it for now from this guest blogger. More when I edit through all of my thousand images and find some great pictures of the sisters...here is one made at the top of close to 400 winding steps!

Excuses, excuses





Just home and trying to catch up. The trip was fantastic but the schedule was a bit grueling. Up between 0430 and 0600 each morning and finally back to bed between 0100 and 0300 each day. If you do the math, you will see we are suffering from some pretty steep sleep deprivation. Going to work on that by calling an early night tonight, so once again, the update will be pushed back a bit. But here's a few pics..
