Off to Amsterdam!

In October I'm off to Amsterdam for four days, which I'm very excited about as I've always wanted to go! I thought I'd share some of my expectations and the things I am looking forward to, and then I'll do a blog post on my trip when I get back with pictures etc.

Things I hope to see

Anne Frank's house/museum



This is somewhere I have wanted to go to ever since I read Anne Frank's diary a few years ago, I am aware that this will be quite emotional, however I believe that it is important that someone who made such an impact and told such a poignant story at such a young should be recognised and remembered.

Clogs




Yes I'm being the ultimate typical tourist, but I'm proud of it! There are some things that are just a disappointment if you don't see them, and clogs are one of these. So, yellow, wooden, traditional shoes...I'm coming to get you (I won't actuallly be buying any)! ;)


Canals

I've seen a few canals in my time- some in Venice, many in Camden- but none look as beautiful as this, and I'm always up for a good photo opportunity, especially of the reflections of those houses on the still water.


Poffertjes




I've heard great things about these and they do look delicious, a bit like pancakes only... fluffier!
I can't wait to get stuck into them, I'll probably end up with sugar powder all over me- definitely embracing a new experience!




All in all, I cant wait, bring it on Amsterdam!
