We went on a canal cruise.
We saw bridges that lift up to let boats through.
Lots of thin and tall buildings...
....more bridges
More fancy buildings...
Can you see the squashed up kitten in the window?
...and house boats. Did you know there are 2,500 houseboats in Amsterdam?
We also visited the Rembrandt House Museum where Rembrandt van Rijn use to live. He is a famous painter from Holland.
This was his kitchen. This picture reminds me of his paintings.
This was his print room.
These were some of the things he collected.
A still life.
Here's Dad pretending to be Rembrandt about to paint in his studio. he got told off for sitting in Rembrandts chair!
Colours ready to be mixed into paint.
Here I'm listening to a man talking about how colours are made. Did you know that blue was the most expensive colour because it had to be made from the gemstone lapis lazuli?
This is a self portrait of Rembrandt.
Location:Amsterdam
