A Weekend in Amsterdam & Antwerp...

We spent the weekend in Amsterdam, Netherlands and Antwerp, Belgium for a fun getaway.  Tom had some business meetings there on Tuesday so it was a perfect chance to head over for the weekend.  We had a wonderful weekend exploring and were blessed with wonderfully sunny weather!  We arrived Saturday evening and had a jam-packed weekend.  We enjoyed exploring the city and the canals, watching all of the bikers, visiting the Van Gogh Museum and the Anne Frank House, indulging in Indonesian and Thai food (Amsterdam is very well known for this cuisine), and cruising through the canals on a boat tour.  
On Monday we took the high speed train to Antwerp, Belgium for the day.  The train was great and took just under an hour to get there.  We wandered around the city exploring in the morning and Tom spent the afternoon in the Antwerp C.H. Robinson office.
All in all, it was a GREAT weekend!
