Return to Amsterdam

Back to Amsterdam for two nights and a day as our adventure winds down. It's been five fabulous weeks and now we are both ready to go back to Wever, Iowa and savor all the memories that we've experienced along this journey.

Norm has been on a mission to drink a new beer every day and although we haven't actually counted them up yet, we're pretty sure that he's "surpassed his goal."  :-)  Our top priority for our time in Amsterdam was to visit the Heineken Musuem which was pretty interesting...and very fun!

A visit to the Cannibis Musuem was even more interesting -- especially learning about all the medicinal uses for hemp. Other than that we just walked around town, drank coffee and enjoyed our last day on the continent. 

To bed early and that is why right now, at 4:00AM I am up typing this blog and trying to finish it before we leave at 7:00AM.  Soon we'll take the short walk to the train station, ride the train to the airport and fly to Chicago. Once there we'll retrive our car from the hotel and drive 4 hours home.  So, it will truly be a day of "trains, planes and automobiles!"

Our europe Adventure has been an amazing, experience, but like  with all our trips, we find our thoughts are starting to turn to home and we both very much look forward to being there for a while.

Little "sayings" and quotation are remembered because they are ring true in our bones. It's true, it's true:  "It is good to journey to an end; but in the end it's the journey that really matters."  And, it's also true........"There's no place like home."
