Known as Adam by the locals, is one bustling, live city!! Last night, the quiet but him neighborhood the Jordaan, where our houseboat resides, warmed up around sunset and simmered until well after 2am. It was, we discovered, an annual affair celebrated in the Jordaan every Sept. 20th. Even the seemingly innocent Kaffe Paris -what we took for a neighborhood espresso joint, had a crowd of 100 spilling out into the street…Â about 75′ from the boat…
Today found us rather sleepy and yet we managed probably a 10 mile walk-about…
