More Pictures from Canal Cruise in Amsterdam

More pictures from my canal cruise in Amsterdam. The interiors of the boat we traveled in. The red interiors brightened up the dull and grey day outside.


The glass roof tops permitted us to have a clear view outside, the tall buildings along the sides of the canals.


A little bit of India in Amsterdam. I saw the advertisements of Yoga classes there. That too Iyengar Yoga a style of Yoga created by B K S Iyengar.


Some of the facades I saw there were beautiful. Most of them had stories, some the captain had narrated of which I remember nothing. Only the beauty of the sights remains with me.

.

I liked the windows of the residential buildings there… all uniformly done.

A floating restaurant on a canal of Amsterdam offering Chinese cuisine.

Hilary said...

Wow.. that looks like a wonderful experience. I can just imagine you trying to organize the narrated stories in your mind so that you could share them with the images on your blog. Remembering nothing is exactly what would happen to me. ;)
