Obligatory "Look how pretty Amsterdam is" post

Yes, Amsterdam is really pretty. Especially when you happen to be there during uncharacteristically good weather.







Fun fact: Amsterdam is a World Heritage Site so you can't repaint your house on a whim. Which means that if someone who lived in your house in 1658 had the plague, then your house got painted black and you have to keep it black for ever.


Similarly, it would seem that as long as you once had some tulips at your house (or houseboat), you have to declare yourself "The Amsterdam Tulip Museum" for ever. This was the second "tulip museum" that I saw, and was not the last.
