AMSTERDAM DAY THREE

21 Mar 2014

Sunday was our last day in Amsterdam. Nooooo!  We checked out of our hotel at 11:00 AM and left our bags at the front desk since our flight wasn't until 7:30. One of the top attractions left on our to-do list was the Anne Frank Huis, so we headed over to the Jordaan district where it's located.
When we arrived, the line for the Anne Frank Huis was very long (as expected.) We got in line, but soon decided to cut our losses because the weather was windy and chilly, and we received info that it would probably be a 1-2 hour wait, so we settled for some pictures in front of the house.
The Jordaan District is a lovely area in Amsterdam. We enjoyed walking around for about an hour before we headed back to towards the Museum Quarter.
At this point we had only a couple of hours to kill, so we wandered around the Museum Quarter until we found a sweet restaurant to grab a bite to eat.
As we walked back towards our hotel after lunch, we took one last glance at the beautiful green in the center of the Museum Quarter. We knew what still needed to be done...
A trip to Amsterdam wouldn't be complete without a picture in front of the I AMSTERDAM letters!
Amsterdam is an amazing city. The culture was refreshing, and the people were kind-- I am so sad to be closing the book on this adventure! I feel really good about what we accomplished in Amsterdam; I feel like we saw a good portion of the city. My hope is to eventually return in a spring or summer month, when everything is in full bloom, to check out more museums, the Anne Frank Huis (obviously) and other districts outside of the city center. 

Tot dan, Amsterdam, tot ziens! <3
