If there is ever a time to visit Amsterdam, its between 10-11am on a Saturday morning, right now.
The streets are empty and cleaner than usual, with way less of the bachelor party goers. But the shops are still open, so it’s possible to get the things done. That is why we managed to stumble upon a few unique things, such as a penny farthing for rent, and a shop full of rubber ducks of all kinds of flavours.
From there we headed to a little town called Woerden for a bit of sightseeing in the old town, before heading to a braai. There is evidence of a town in that area since Roman times, and even now it is alive with residents going about their business.
Be kind. Stay safe.
