"Ocean of Bikes" Greet the European Grand Tour Trekkers in Amsterdam


We woke up in Ghent and the boys woke up too late so we almost missed check out. We went to a cat cafe before we left for Amsterdam. The purpose of the cat cafe was to make shy cats left at the shelter more comfortable around people. But this meant that all the cats were too scared for us to pet. We got to the train station and had to take 2 trains to get to Amsterdam. We were all pretty stressed out but at least we didn’t take our bikes apart this time. We left the train station of Amsterdam and saw an ocean of bikes. Bikes seemed to outnumber the people. We got to the hostel and ate a nice dinner. We ended the night with a stroll in Vondelpark, the the main city park adjacent to the hostel.
