I woke up quite early on our next morning here and I went down to a little bakery, a 2 minute stroll away from the Amsterdam apartment we have rented, to purchase breakfast for my 2 ladies. They were nicely surprised when they found me arriving with croissants and additional tasty things, still hot. We enjoyed a good family breakfast and searched the map for the places that we have planned to view.

These sites involved the Nemo destination, that is the greatest science center in the country and which occurred to be in a location that was very easily available from the Amsterdam getaway flat we were staying at. Then we entered the Maritime Museum too, as it is located simply close to Nemo.

Our next stop was the Magere Brug, that is positioned in the center of Amsterdam and goes back from the 1930’s and is colored in white. From then on we went to get a snack at a bistro nearby, which had a specific menu for the young children.

Ellie was bored and for that reason Anna and I took her to the Artis place, that is a large zoo in the town center zone of Amsterdam. Aside from zoo, right here are also placed a planetarium and a zoological museum, and also a geological museum. I may say, me and my wife were fascinated in the place as well and had some enjoyable time there.

That last night in the capital of Netherlands was spend outdoors of the Amsterdam holiday apartment. The three of us visited the Rembrandt Square and next to the Leidseplein Square. These 2 areas are the primary entertainment locations in the city, where are concentrated a lot of night clubs, movie theaters and theatres, in addition a betting house and the excellent thing is that many of these are easily obtainable by foot, therefore we all had excellent moment.

On the upcoming morning, our daughter Ellie woke us up, as she was eager and excited and desired to go on sightseeing trip the moment possible. My spouse Anna was persistent and therefore she made Ellie eat her breakfast before going, while we were having our first cup of espresso in the Amsterdam residence where we had been residing. We chose to devote that day to the museums in Amsterdam, however we all decided that the three main museums in the capital of the Netherlands will be sufficient.

The very first museum to visit and the one nearest to the Amsterdam holiday apartment, was the Van Gogh Museum. I am a complete admirer of this well-known artist and was incredibly pleased to see the largest choice of paintings from Van Gogh. The following spot we saw was the House of Anne Frank, which features various historical artefacts telling the story of a small lady that made a huge effect on the earth. The 3rd stop that day was at the nation’s museum of the country Rijkmuseum. We managed to have snack at the gardens close to this art gallery, which are really pleasant and sunny.

On the way back to the Amsterdam holiday residence we have booked, we broke into a few souvenir shops and several large department shops. Anna particularly liked one of the outdoor marketplaces we passed by and bought some gifts.

Right after a brief nap in our Amsterdam holiday apartment, we were ready to go out again and Anna recommended we enjoy a quiet evening, sitting at the large terrace of one of the local bars. There was a children playground area, so Ellie was busy too, as we were eating and taking pleasure in a cold glass of beer and some home-produced wine.

I have been to the netherlands capital many times, but it was usually on business and even though I knew the districts, I was not quite conscious of just how enchanting and impressive that city is if you travel with your household and loved ones. Thus, for our fifth celebration, I made a decision to take my spouse and my daughter on a long weekend in Amsterdam.

I arranged the plane seats and booked a holiday Amsterdam apartment from a website that I found an easy task to navigate and basic to book. The serviced Amsterdam holiday residence that I picked was really carefully picked, as I required Anna and our child Ellie to be close to the primary landmarks and yet to be able to return to the apartment easily if they need to.

Once we got there in the capital of Netherlands, we were all happy, since this was our first true family vacation, because until now Ellie was too small to travel with us. Thus, we settled in our Amsterdam apartment, left our baggage and were keen to go out again.

The very first thing we did that day was to take a canal cruise, as the canals in Amsterdam are symbolic representation of the city that build its romantic charm, revealing spectacular panoramic scenery. There are lots of canal cruises to select from in Amsterdam, but we decided to take a larger vessel, where we also had the chance to dine.

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