As soon as we returned to Amsterdam we decided to take a canal tour, since we had visited the tulip garden at the beginning of our river cruise instead of the canal trip. Our boat was a vintage boat originally used by a lawyer to visit his clients.
We passed the poezenboot, a floating house for stray cats.
We found Nemo, who seems to have grown a bit since his movie.
An example of a leaning house.
We learned about how the buildings were constructed in the water.
We learned that during the plague, houses with infected people were painted black. The people are gone, but the black remains.
The famous floating flower market, from the water side.
