Today. Now I start getting the AARP mail…

But first! You know what I LOVE about Amsterdam?? Bikes! This is a biking town. The roads are for bikes and there are bike parking lots everywhere. Cars are a distant fourth when it comes to transportation (after public trans, bikes and walking). And none of those skinny road-n-town bikes that you have to wear spandex to drive. These are solid steel bikes – and they all have FENDERS… like every bike worth it’s salt should. I love this. These are bikes for the working class, just like I used to have in Boston.

Well, off to Concertgebouw and the symphony.
