Today I’m at Heathrow airport, as we are flying back to our home in Florida. We’ve had a wonderful month, what with Mom-in-law’s 100th birthday celebrations, a week’s visit to beautiful Cornwall, and the fabulous Rhine cruise last week. On Sunday, we docked in Amsterdam, and had a couple of hours before our flight to England, so took a short walk around some of the streets of Amsterdam. I bet you can’t possibly guess what I saw there. 🙂
Whilst dodging the ‘flying’ cyclists who don’t slow down or stop for anyone, I saw even more bikes. Can you see the hundreds more stacked up across the canal?
Can you just hazard a guess as to what is the most popular mode of transport in Amsterdam?
Ah, here’s one guy who doesn’t seem to have a bike.
The owner of this one obviously likes to pretty things up a bit, judging by all the colourful flowers on the spokes.
I think this one must also belongs to a female. 😕
Many workers travel to work by train, but as you can see, they leave their bikes outside the station. I wonder how they identify their own bike out of this lot.
You want a coffee? Just ride your bike over to Starbucks.
Every canal is lined with bicycles.
Now I have to ‘get on my bike’ and head down to the boarding gate. See you all on the other side. 🙂
