  1. Today is a religious, public holiday and there are people and bicycles everywhere - and - lines for some of the restaurants. We decided to diet, exercise and slowly made our way back to the ship after being dropped off near the middle of the city, near the train station - a 20 minutes slow walk to the cruise terminal
  2. Next is a drive-by to see some of the unique homes, houses, places in the countryside along the canals & small rivers
  3. It's all about flowers - colorful and too many varieties to go into, not that I know what's what 😆 feel free to skip ahead
  4. Earlier this morning, we had a 1 hour early start leaving the pier vs NCL group tours didn't move up their time. Our driver knew we're early and contacted us via Nancy/ Bill's better half and we're ready to go by 10 AM. Plenty of parking - good walking exercise 😆 We used the side entrance & driver-guide took a short cut to avoid traffic heading to the flower show.
  5. Finished dinner early, 4 hungry adults left plenty of food for others, held in the gallery ... including the 7 near-pier runners being paged around 7:40 PM. Apparently, they made it as it's just 7:05 and we are on the move already, heading straight out toward the lock. Tonight's MDR menu isn't seen or used often, Chinese themed options and tomorrow night, Thai themed as the niece placed her pre-order.
  6. What a day in Amsterdam and we are safely onboard mothership Prima by 4 PM. Private tour was excellent, thank you, Bill & Nancy. OMG, I have only about 130 new photos to add or upload to share w CC'ers but going to early bird dinner shortly so we can come back up to our balcony to enjoy sailaway & watch the 3 hours scenic river transit to the lock again. First, this batch is all about the gangway, reminders & terminal facilities, etc. and, it has good & fast, free WiFi 👍
