Arrived early at 11:30am, to a foggy and overcast day. Showers predicted, but the sun peeks out occasionally. Canal tour this avo then disembark tomorrow at 9am.

Quick stroll around the red light district last night. The girls seemed a little prettier and less bored, than I recall from previous visits.

Now the 9th. Met up with Jan and Tessa this morning, ran a couple of errands with them and came back to their house on a canal for morning tea. Then Rob and I caught a tram to the museum square: visited Van Gogh, a diamond house and Rembrandt's House. Then a long, leisurely walk home. Special home dinner tonight, rijsttafel tomorrow night and Japanese the night after.

Rijksmuseum
The National Museum, too church-like for the early Protestants of the city.
