Amsterdam Days Go by


Random Words Pictures Thoughts And Phrases



 I got up earlier than usual it must be because I am a year older today.
No great plans for today, except to have my usual birthday breakfast of a cup of coco and a cheese toast a tradition that I have been observing since my18th when I arrived here in Amsterdam all those years ago.
This morning I will open my presents always a nice thing, and in the evening I am going to cook dinner for a few close friends,  Nice.
It is nice to wake up and see all the messages for a happy birthday, one of the few things I like about FB.
Later this morning I will call my Mother and Father and thank them for the gift of life, then check the boat, maybe even go for a ride on the canals the weather is very nice.
Last year I was in Ardmore Ireland at the Cliff House Hotel, that was a nice day, Spa and walks on the beach then dinner at a fabulous Michelin * hotel restaurant not bad.
But I am sure that the pasta I am making this evening will be as good,  Nice.

I wish everybody a happy day today. Thank you all for the happy birthday messages.

Here are a few photos one from last year and some from this morning.
