Amsterdam April DAY 5 & 6 & 7

The fifth day was the last day of mum´s and sister´s visit. We took it easy and went for a walk. I showed them 3D print Canal house, then we walked through Westerdok quarter and take a break at Westerpark, where we were enjoying sun and delicious ice cream. After icecram we headed again back to the center by walking through Haarlemmerstraat. We had visited exhibition called Dutch design year, where all interesting design achievements of the past year were exhibited. The exhibition took place at the former bourse in Amsterdam: Beurs van Berlage which is located on Damrak, I have never been there before, so it was really nice to see not only the exhibition but also the interior. I had such a great time with them and I am happy that I was able to see them and spent some time with them. 

The next day the weather was not so good, it was raining, it seemed like Amsterdam was crying because my mum and sis had left the other day. So I didnt do anything extra just riding through Vondelpark and nearby streets.

The seventh day the weather was again beautiful. We had spent the afternoon by visiting Schinkeleilanden park and Amsterdamse Bos. At Amsterdamse Bos we were firstly amused by rowing coaches biking along the Bosbaan (training canal), holding loudspeaker and giving advices to the rowers. There are so many things "hidden" in Amsterdamse Bos like climbing centre, paddling pool for childrens, horse manege, opentheatre and so on. There is also little farm, we found while cycling through Bos, called Geitenboerderij Ridammerhoeve, where they have chickens, goats, pigs and horses. It was beautiful evening I had enjoyed it a lot; just riding my bike and drinking in the beautiful nature.
