Amsterdam pics
The next stop of our tour was Amsterdam, the “Venice of the North”, We took a canal cruise, visited a clogs factory and also visited a cheese factory. We had a little free time so we took a leisurely stroll around the tourist area and did some shopping by ourselves.
I discovered a secret. If my husband and I conversed in Hockien, the shopkeepers won’t understand us and it was easier to bargain. We just pretended not to know much English and waited for them to come down to our prices. 
There is a curious sense of history in Amsterdam. It is not quite Paris but I love the city. I love the canals and the scenes by the canals.
