funny face photo...dan would kill me...we laughed so hard about this picture cause of his face...but this is us outside the hardrock..it was so warm and we had a table right outside on the canal...it was wonderful...but we just couldnt get a decent picture of the 3 of us....

big chess game...it was intense.

just a pretty picture..i havent posted too many scenic pictures because most of them need to be rotated first and i cant figure out how to do that......sorry......does that even make sense??

the lovely vondel park....it was a perfect day for us to walk around....and we WALKED!

i let dan have the camera cause dad said there arent too many pictures of me...so here i am in this really neat tree.....the park is filled with the most amazing trees.

the food pictures are for honey (my grandmother) so she can actually see that we are eating well....mmmmm mexican night.....we made homemade guac and everything...

this was soooo good too....fresh fish with dill and lemon, zucchini with onions, eggplant stuff that i made, and spanish rice.....yummmm!!

so what did we do in amsterdam? by the looks of things we ate a lot of good food and walked a lot. we are headed to the hague tomorrow, another city in holland, and im excited but its going to be weird strapping on that backpack after a week of being spoiled....we had a good day, the 3 of us...and we are trying to plan the rest of our time in holland. there is a national park with free bikes that i would love to explore on the other coast so hopefully we can get there at some point. our flight doesnt leave here until the 25th so i think we will manage to see quite a bit of the smaller towns. i cant wait to get homecooked food again in 9 days!! haha..thats right linda, you are cooking for us! whether you like it or not...that chicken soup will do just fine...although i am looking forward to some english fish n chips....mmm...all i can talk about is food! this is awful....our colds have finally subsided...but we passed them on somehow...oops. we went out for a walk last night because we felt if we didnt after a big dinner and ice cream, well....we'd be fat loads...so we walked and stumbled upon a pile of rubbish and it was amazing. apparently they are cleaning out some apartments down the road and throwing out perfectly good things...so eva walked away (extremely happy) with some great curtain drapes, awesomely huge chinese lanterns, a globe that lights up, some weird animal things...and other stuff...who wouldve thought searching through piles of rubbish in amsterdam could be so fun...besides the creepy guy that was doing it too...he said it happens every monday....and he pulled out a pair of jeans for eva cause he thought they would fit her.....haha...weird.......so thats about it....everyone has gone out tonight but the 3 amigos are staying put and packing....and planning....so off till who knows when. i probably wont be able to put pics up again until england...sorry!
