In late July, Jimmy and I headed to Amsterdam so Andrea could give me some training on how to file sales tax returns for Jimmy’s new sole proprietorship. Afterwards, we walked to Hannekes Boom, a funky bar near Amsterdam Centraal. Along the way, we saw this cute mermaid planter box...
...and this crazy ladder sculpture balanced off the roof of a building.
We also saw this guerrilla marketing message from the city geared to remind tourists not to buy drugs from street dealers. Perhaps they should also remind them to visit coffee shops instead?
Check out this classy front step with a beer can-sized gap underneath.
We were thrilled that Melissa and Pieter could meet us for lunch at Hannekes Boom during their babymoon in Amsterdam.
Having heard their big news when we visited in December (long before Melissa was actually showing), it was really great to see her before their baby’s arrival.
Turned out that we saw them in the nick of time as little Norah was born in early August, less than two weeks later.
