I woke up very early on the next morning here and I went down to a small bakery, a two-minute walk apart from the Amsterdam flat we have booked, to purchase breakfast for my two ladies. They were nicely astonished when they saw me coming with croissants and additional delicious things, still warm. We had a nice family breakfast and looked at the map for the points of interest that we have prepared to view.

These spots included the Nemo attraction, which is the greatest science center in the country and which occurred to be in a location that was very easily accessible from the Amsterdam vacation residence we were residing at. Then we joined the Maritime Museum too, since it is set simply alongside Nemo.

The subsequent stop was the Magere Brug, which is situated in the heart of Amsterdam and goes back from the 1930’s and is painted in white. From then on we went to get a snack at a bistro nearby, which had a special menu for the kids.

Ellie was bored and for this reason Anna and I took her to the Artis place, which is a large zoo in the town center area of Amsterdam. Besides zoo, right here are also positioned a planetarium and a zoological museum, and also a geological museum. I could say, me and my wife were interested in the place too and had some pleasurable time there.

That final evening in the capital of Netherlands was spend outdoors of our own Amsterdam vacation dwelling. The 3 of us went to the Rembrandt Square and next to the Leidseplein Square. These two specific zones are the primary entertainment locations in the town, where are concentrated numerous dance clubs, movie theaters and theatres, in addition a betting house and the excellent thing is that all of these are easily obtainable by walking, thus we all had great time.

On the upcoming morning, our daughter Ellie woke us up, because she was eager and anxious and desired to go on sightseeing journey as soon as achievable. My spouse Anna was patient and therefore she made Ellie eat her breakfast first, while we were drinking our first cup of tea in the Amsterdam apartment where we have been staying. We decided to spend that day to the museums in Amsterdam, however we all decided that the three key museums in the capital of the Netherlands will be enough.

The first museum to visit and the one closest to our own Amsterdam vacation residence, was the Van Gogh Museum. I am an absolute admirer of this particular well-known painter and was very pleased to observe the largest selection of prints from Van Gogh. The next spot we saw was the House of Anne Frank, which features various historic artefacts revealing the tale of a little lady who made a big impact on the earth. The third stop that day was at the nation’s museum of the country Rijkmuseum. We managed to get lunch at the gardens close to that museum, that are really enjoyable and inviting.

On our way back to the Amsterdam holiday flat we have booked, we entered a few souvenir stores and a number of large department shops. Anna especially loved one of the open-air marketplaces we passed by and purchased some presents.

After a brief nap in our Amsterdam holiday apartment, we were ready to go out again and Anna suggested we enjoy a quiet evening, sitting at the large terrace of one of the local cafes. There was a children playground spot, so Ellie was occupied too, as we were dining and taking pleasure in a cold glass of draught beer and some house wine.

I’ve been to holland main city several times, yet it was always on business and even though I knew the districts, I was not very aware of how charming and impressive this city is if you are with your family and loved ones. Therefore, for our 5th anniversary, I made a decision to take my better half and our little princess on a long weekend in Amsterdam.

I arranged the plane seat tickets and booked a holiday Amsterdam apartment from a web site which I found easy to navigate and easy to book. The vacation Amsterdam getaway residence that I chose was really very carefully chosen, as I required Anna and our child Ellie to be near to the primary points of interest and yet to be able to return to the apartment easily in case they need to.

When we arrived in the main city of Netherlands, we were all happy, as that was our first real family vacation, because until now Ellie was too little to take a trip with us. Thus, we settled in our Amsterdam flat, placed our luggage and were eager to go out again.

The first thing we did on that day was to start on a canal cruise, as the canals in Amsterdam are image of the city that build its romantic appeal, uncovering stunning panoramic scenery. There are a lot of canal cruises available in Amsterdam, but we decided to take a larger charter boat, where we also had the chance to dine.

That afternoon we spend in the old town and the central zone of the city, which are close to our Amsterdam apartment. The centre is compact and is pleasant to explore by walking. It features great architecture which is a fest for the eye, numerous bridges and a great deal of cafes, elegant restaurants and small parks.
