Took a walk after getting to Amsterdam to explore and counter jet lag a bit. I’ve travelled through Amsterdam a lot but this is my first time travelling to here. It is a cool city.

A narrow, bustling street features rows of bicycles parked alongside pedestrians walking past shops and signs, creating a typical urban scene. Bicycles are parked along a canal in front of traditional, narrow Dutch buildings under a clear blue sky. People are lined up outside the Anne Frank House, a modern building with large glass windows. A boat filled with people travels along a tree-lined canal, with people sitting at a café and bicycles parked nearby. A boat cruises along a lively canal lined with historic buildings and lush trees under a clear blue sky.

Tammy and I went to the newly opened Dario for dinner tonight. The meal, wine, ambiance, and service were fantastic. We had the Gem Lettuces followed by the Fall Vegetable Salad and the Spicy Rigatoni alla Vodka for pasta. Dessert was Cake & Ice Cream. The pasta blew me away with the flavors!

A bicycle is parked in front of the Dario restaurant entrance, where a person wearing a green jacket is walking inside. A plate of greens topped with shredded cheese is served on a table set with glasses and utensils. A plate of roasted vegetables and herbs is served next to a glass of red wine at a dining table. A plate of pasta topped with sauce, garnished with fresh basil and grated cheese, is set on a dining table. A chocolate dessert topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a thin wafer sits on a white plate next to a glass of water and a wine glass.
