Day 318: Amsterdam in the Sun

I was supposed to go paddling today, but the wind was strongly blowing and the temperature dropped today to where it wouldn’t be comfortable if you fell in the water. But the sun was shining and it was a gorgeous day to be in the city instead. The boys were invited to go for a boat ride and took the tram by themselves into the centrum to meet up with friends. We then spontaneously decided to wander around Amsterdam with Juliana, walking the streets and exploring the city which is always fun, especially when escorted by sunshine. Here are pictures from a perfect, random day in Amsterdam. Life is good, friends.

So these pictures are my receipt for putting one foot in front of the other and not having a plan, and letting life unfold how it’s meant to be. I started the day off anxiously and am ending with joy. I wish you the same. Go outside and play.
