as evyn said... museum fun was had today! although i nearly throttled another tourist for using flash photography repeatedly on a 13th century painting.... tisk tisk! however i really don't feel like being banned from museums or blacklisted for smashing cameras so i gritted my teeth and moved away! lucky her is all i can say...

in other news, thanks to mum and dad's generosity i am now the proud owner of sensible boots! they are (for the benifit of mum) like a cross between my old roc boots with the laces and evyn's boots; my new ones are the same brand- new rocks. they are lower to the ground than my old ones though and are extreemly comfortable everyday type boots... so a job well done!

anywho... were still looking around the realestate market online and elsewhere.. which is fun :) but it's a bit tricky to decide just yet.. thankfully we have a few people to ask around before anything gets set in stone...

as for everything else .. its all falling into place nicely :) missing everyone though..

till next time!

Lucy and I spent a good portion of today visiting the Amsterdam Historic Museum. It was throughly enjoyable and quite stimulating of the mind.

There is a large collection of wonderful items and displays from the history of this rather odd city. We only managed to see a third of all the displays in the four hours or so we spent in there.

Now we are spending some time wandering the markets in the hunt for food and anything that takes our fancy. Lucy has just purchased some lovely boots for herself which I thoroughly approve .

I'm sure Lucy will post images and talk with more detail about our adventures today when she has the opportunity.

We still as yet have no camera. Hopefully one will be in the works soon.

For the moment,
Evyn out.

Welcome to the blog of our adventures

Welcome to the blog of Evyn and Lucy for our adventures in the lovely city of Amsterdam in the Netherlands.

We will be posting up pictures and information of our travels around. Mostly it will be boring things that are of interest to our family and friends. If you like what you see here feel free to post us a comment.

Neither Lucy or I have a digital camera that we can use to post up pictures (aside from our phones - of which only Lucy's phone works but cannot be connected to a computer easily) so you'll have to make do with text adventures for the moment.

Look forward to getting pictures in the future once Lucy and I manage to purchase a camera.

Now I must get back to work.
Check back here in the future for updates and amusing tales.
