Amsterdam 12 012.jpg (140475 bytes) This time only four of us went to Amsterdam to celebrate the 50th birthdays of Randy and Ed - but as happened in 2006, we were joined by our old friend Bartley.  He was only with us for two days but he always adds so much laughter and love to any event that even two days can be a wonderful visit.  Amsterdam 12 038.jpg (53778 bytes)

We didn't see any tulips this time but we did see windmills:
