Trains, bikes and salted herring in Amsterdam

We drove our rental Tesla Model Y from our boat house to a nearby station, and caught the train into Amsterdam.

It really is the city of bikes. And canal boats, and trams, and peanut butter, cheese, mayonnaise on chips, salted herring with pickle, weed, and a fancy cookie.

And so many bikes. Did I mention bikes? Many more than cars. If the bikes were replaced with cars, they would not fit. Much better use of space, and better health. People of all ages riding bikes, carrying kids, food, cargo. People dressed well, just riding bikes.

The Holocaust memorial was quite sobering. It stated one purpose to remind us to never do that again. It’s very said that we haven’t learned that lesson today.
