Amsterdam
As followers of this blog will know i head over to Amsterdam at least twice a year,
It is such an amazing city, spilling out at the seams with art and design.
My favourite way to view this city has to be on the canals by boat. Im very lucky that my cousin and her fella have their own boat.
Grab some beers, head out and enjoy the diverse and interesting sites of Amsterdam!
Once again i headed over to Amsterdam to catch up with my family and friends out there for the Queensday celebrations.
Here are a few images from the couple of days i spent there.
Street performers in the main square.
Have you picture taken.. and a beer all for €4.. bargain! Thats where wedding photographers are going wrong, they dont include any beer in their packages...
One busy party Canal.
This lady is having a good time.
Orange!
They say you dont get anything for free...
Street party.
My aunty and cousin rock and rolling.. I love the smile on my aunts face, it shows how happy we all were to be there.
A Bouncy Castle, a Lion and an African DJ... only in Amsterdam..
I ended up travelling over to Holland to party at Queens day in Amsterdam.
If you are like me you probably have not heard of this day before, i think it's a Dutch secret...
But WOW what a day!
The day origins from a previous Queens birthday, which the people still remain to celebrate.
The Dutch people are very much like the Brits and enjoy a good drink and party!
Queens day starts off early, where the towns people are out in force selling there possessions on the streets.
The buyers and sellers are all drinking, there are boats with HUGE sound systems booming out tunes which adds to the party atmosphere.
The sellers, then get drunk and seem to wonder off from their pitch.
As you walk the Streets of Amsterdam you turn a corner, the roads are blocked off and a DJ has set up shop with party go-errs dancing, drinking having a great time.
Here are a few images from my time there...
