Day 15~ Monday July 15, 2019 Back in Amsterdam Netherlands on the Baltic Spitsbergen & Icelandic Fjords Exployer

So again we dock in this beautiful city of Bicycles, canals, and

So this morning we arrived at 8:00 am and all aboard is at 4pm to continue our journey.  Beginning to love this amazing city.  This is our 2nd time out of 3 days in Amsterdam that we have on this journey.  We also leave out of Amsterdam when we board our final cruise on the Viking.  So today is like any other port day, then being a turn around day (which will happen on Aug 04).  Which is when we stay on the same ship same room for our second cruise.  I know its very confusing.  Anyway we had a great breakfast and we came back in the late afternoon and went up to the crows nest to watch the sail away.  But today we went to the flower market.  It was on the canal between Koinslpein and Muntplein on the Singel.  Lots of gift shops and souvenir shops but hardly any fresh flowers which we thought it would be over flowing with flowers.  Wrong only bulbs now.  Disappointing.

"I think that travel comes from some deep urge to see
 the world, like
 the urge that brings up a worm in a Irish bog
 to see the moon when it is full"
for who said that but I liked it.
