Becoming Orange...










If it's orange...it's perfect. After trawling through our wardrobes looking for anything that's orange or close enough, and not too ugly, we managed to scrape together an outfit for Queens Day. Shortly after arriving in Amsterdam, we picked up some orange clompen (clogs) which was a nice finishing touch to our orangeness. We marched onward (clip clopping away in our new clogs) through the crowded streets of Amsterdam and ended up at a friend's place for a party which was in her stunning canalhouse in the heart of all the action. There was also a meat pie stall outside the apartment....a delicious taste of home. The atmosphere was buzzing throughout all of Amsterdam with live bands, street stalls, people partying on the streets and canals, and we had a blast hanging out with friends and soaking it all in.
