Welcome to Amsterdam. If you can tell the buildings are leaning forward. Not just because they are old (which they are) but because they use the angle to hoist things up. Each building has a hook at the top so a rope can be levied with the items you wish to hoist.

We heart Amsterdam.

We stayed at a hostel that was very thin and tall - like all the buildings. This stairwell was so steep - you're looking down 3 flights of stairs right now. : )

The bikes were - everywhere.

The oldest church in the Red Light District - now houses fancy art.
