Pictures from Week One

Ah, typical first picture of European waters. About to land in Amsterdam! 

View from my hotel room when I arrived. This is the northern part of the city, so very quiet and residential.

Out after our first real day in the city. Tintna de verano.

Sign on one of the protester's tents

The protest on Friday night. Liveliest about 2 AM.

They took over most of the Metro stops at the Plaza del Sol. This one was still open, at least. 

Typical street downtown. Very blurry :/

Spanish room service breakfast. Adorbs.

I'm so awkward. This was the walk to lunch, still northern part of the city. 

Store front. Lots of these places. 

Grand Via. Comparable to NYC's Broadway maybe. Some parts of the street look like Times Square. 

Pictures of historical Madrid coming.... in a minute!
