Hey everybody!!! It's been an extremely hectic, tiring, exhausting week, but it's been good. It was hard saying goodbye to Amsterdam. It's an incredible city and I am very in love with it. I've had some incredible times here, and also the best P-days ever, haha. I have no right to complain about anywhere else that I go. I have been so lucky with my cities, and I'm off to another cool one!
For my last P-Day in A'Dam, we decided to go all out. So... we went to four different things.
2 Museums
1 Memorial
and
A Palace
We didn't think we would be able to make it through all of them, but we actually did with a couple of hours to spare.
We first went to the Hollandse Schouwberg, which is this old theater that's been turned into a memorial. It's in the Jewish District, and it's where they held all of the Jewish people before deporting them. :( It was extremely sad, but important to go and remember. It was a beautiful memorial.
Then we went to the Rembrant House, which was where Rembrant lived. Super cool. :D
Then we biked off to Ons Lieve Heer op Solder, or: Our Lord in the Attic. It's this old church built into the attic of an old Dutch House a couple hundred years ago, during a time when Catholicism was forbidden. It was incredible. (I will send more pictures in separate emails).
And we took a break and ate by the canals.
And then we concluded our biking journey through Amsterdam with the palace.
