Amsterdam: Day 1

Lunch in Norwich, dinner in Amsterdam with a bit of drama thrown in.  Just as we heard the taxi draw up outside the house, Billy the decorator ran into the hall to announce that there was water pouring out of the overflow at the back of the house.  We ran round flushing toilets and at last it stopped so all was well!  Just what we needed at the last minute.

We arrived at our Amsterdam apartment and were met at the door by the charming owner.  It's a very attractive flat overlooking a canal.   Of course there aren't enough hangers and it's up three flights of narrow steep stairs...but that will be good for us - the stairs, not the hangers.   We've been out to a grocery store on the next corner and stocked up on enough for breakfast.  More exploring tomorrow, but in the meantime the first bottle of wine has been opened and we're off to dinner at Luden shortly.  Sigh!
