Well, I promised myself that I would post images from Amsterdam in January, before the memories of New Years faded away. Interestingly, the short winter days of Northern Europe didn't curb my shutter-happy fingers...so this posting is over-stuffed with images. But before commencing with the colorful revelry, I thought I would indulge in some stream-of-conscious memories...Gelukkig nieuwjaar.
Eyeing the Rembrants and the Van Goghs.

COLD COLD COLD
And now...on with the pictures.
