The trip up through Belgium and the Netherlands was uneventful. The Trafalgar Tour coach was comfortable and the driver was obviously experienced. My daughter relieved the tedium of the trip by teasing me from the seat in front.
But eventually our destination appeared ahead.
Amsterdam’s name is quite descriptive, meaning a dam on the river Amstel. However it has come a long way since it’s origin 800 years ago

What a blessing to travel with your daughter!

Thanks 🙂 At the end of the day the trip was all about her seeing that the world is more than suburban Sydney 🙂

There are some beautiful light effects you managed to capture in the canal photos!

I think those light effects were luck more than skill 🙂

Luck is also a skill. Or at least an attribute in some systems =D

Your response made me think of Teela Brown in Larry Niven’s Ringworld

Sadly I haven’t had a chance to read Ringworld. I was simply thinking of various RPG rule systems =)
