Spotted in Leiden...

Not something you see everyday: a cyclist filling up the fuel tank for his boat. We’re lucky that it fits on the back of Jimmy’s bike. 
On the negative side, our little putt-putt motor is quite loud. On the positive side, €2 of fuel lasts over an hour, which makes for pretty darn affordable entertainment.  
Some of the things spotted in early August included: incredible wispy clouds over the Old Observatory...
…a table built on top of beer crates set up on a barge for a romantic dinner for two...
…another romantic canalside table...
…a bunch of swans...
…a colorful mural on the backside of the National Museum of Ethnology...
…a funky pandemic creature...
…lovely gray and white clouds (as opposed to our usual completely gray clouds)…
…water like glass as we returned to our parking space on the far left...
…and the reflected bridge across from our dock (dock might be too strong of a word as it implies something made of wood or metal, whereas we just walk across grass directly onto our boat).
