iam sterdam

For those who missed me this weekend, I was out of town. By the title of this post and the shirt, you should be able to guess my destination.

Since I don't have time for an appropriate blog post, I thought I'd set the stage with an early quote.

(Keep in mind that florence is one of my most favorites cities.)

We stayed at the Swissotel near the Dam Square. Yes, the hotel was very, very nice, but for some reason I don't recall our hotel looking like this.

That's all for now......Stay tuned.
