Amsterdam part 2

Dam Square is pretty much downtown Amsterdam. It has the Royal Palace, but the Queen doesn’t live there. It has the New Church, which is actually very old. It has Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum, which is kind of creepy. And the National Monument, which reminded me of Trajan’s Column. I think it’s a European thing to have large poles in the middle of squares as monuments. We Americans never got into that.

Dam Square has a lot of tourist shopping and all kinds of food from all over the world. They were having some kind of electric car show one day [10/26/11] and there were all these tiny electric cars all lined up across the square. I doubt it looks like that every day.

No hate, please. There's enough of that in the world already.
