Day 71: Beautiful Amsterdam

I have so many things to share, but what I loved most today was when the rain stopped and we were up on the rooftop at the Nemo museum.  The views were gorgeous and the air was crisp. I hope you enjoy the views of beautiful Amsterdam.

things that make you go wow!

What I’m realizing being in the Netherlands, is that even though I tend to highlight the differences between the NL and the USA, that life is very much the same here, as it is in the states. Even though there are several differences, my days are spent much the same way as they were in the States. There is a general busyness to the days here just as there was back home. I still have house chores, shopping, kids’ sports, dinners, kids’ homework, socializing, facebook and email to check, and exercising to do. There are beautiful places to visit and things to learn about and relationships to nurture. I’m inspired and intrigued and curious and am having fun exploring and learning in a new environment, and am enjoying the general busyness of it all. Life is good.  xo
