Spring 2013 edition
Amsterdam might not be a big city but it is well appointed with beautiful, open, green parks. They are quite a spectacle during spring. We were in Westerpark a week ago and spent several hours under the rows of trees covered in flowers.
Cycling to (and in) Westerpark on a sunny weekend afternoon for a small picnic is one of those simple pleasures of life that cost you nothing but leave you happy and relaxed. The municipality does its bit by providing these plastic sheets to sit on and, when done, to neatly bundle and throw away your trash in.
