A weekend in Amsterdam

Last weekend I visited Amsterdam for the first time and completely fell in love with the city - the beautiful canals, houseboats, bicycles and the laid back atmosphere... honestly, it hasn't topped NYC as my dream city, but it came pretty close!

 I haven't got around to uploading my proper camera pics, but thought I'd share a few phone-toes in the meantime...

Delft & Tulips at the Rijks Museum ▼ A photo can't do the beauty of the canals justice ▼An Alladin's cave of fabrics on Albert Cuyp Market ▼ Westerkerk ▼ The best Apple Pie in Amsterdam from Winkle Cafe ▼ Amsterdammers know how to chill with the best of them! ▼ Stroll through the Red Light district and stop for this divine chocolate tart at the bottom of Oudezijds Achterburgwal ▼ Vermeer at the Rijks Museum
