A Happy Queens Day to All!

So, today was Queens Day - a big deal here. It's basically an annual opportunity to wear lots of orange and drink lots of beer. The streets (and canals) of central Amsterdam are packed for a party that goes on all day and all night. Nothing can quite describe it like photos, so here are a few...

Where there's beer, there's men peeing, so why not be prepared? (And yes, we did see plenty of people using them...and for the girls you ask? Just 2 Euro to pee inside...so much for the enlightened europeans...!)

So, of course, we had to join in the fun!

(yeah, okay, so the beer is Belgian, but the boys are all Dutch!)

Also, because we have some catching up to do, here's what else we've been up to...

Jaya's first ever airplane ride. Completely oblivious.

Jaya meets Rosie. Chews her seat, pulls her hair, pokes her in the eye. It must be love.

Jaya and Kelsey take in the sights of London town.

Stay tuned for more fun and adventure to come!
