Amsterdam (reprise)

Our epic 72 hour trek home started yesterday when we took the ferry from Hydra back to Athens. A great final meal with our friends and this morning we were up bright and early to catch a flight back to Amsterdam. Tomorrow we take our long-haul through Dublin to Chicago, where a combination of bus, car service (thanks mom!) and our trusty corolla will have us home. Whew!

But first we had a nice afternoon revisiting Amsterdam, our first stop on this trip, over four weeks ago. We had missed the Van Gogh museum on our first pass and our hotel was just a short walk away. Very nice museum, but quite busy near closing time. A quick stop at the grocery store for some dinner supplies and snacks for tomorrow’s flight, and then a final beer at a local bar to top it all off. A great end to a fantastic trip.
