Everyone wears orange and the city of Amsterdam turns into one giant yard sale (followed by one giant party boat/club). In fact, one is not allowed to sell things without a permit outdoors the rest of the year. Vondelpark was the place to head for family-friendly wares.
Seb bargaining for some Playmobil |
Can't figure out if this is anti-monarchy sentiment |
This certainly is |
Seb's major find - a wave board |
the siblings practicing on it |
Digging into a traditional prize bin |
our haul (before I got some purple shoes for me and a horse pillowcase for S2) |
our kids had made plastic band bracelets in the national colours and so set up a stall and earned about 4 Euros in an hour |
these American kids were customers |
Everyone got orange |
my attempt to blend in |
checking out fossils with our hosts |
and then around 4 pm, the mood started to change |
and the canals got a bit crazy |
the kids were bemused and so we headed home all happy What a fabulous day!! |
