This week you get a flavor of Amsterdam. I went there on Thursday 
afternoon to walk around a bit and honor HCB by taking some pictures. 
Not that they are in his caliber, but I do believe they are in his 
spirit. I have also added a couple of shots taken yesterday, before and 
after the Pride parada (which will be subject of a separate gallery).

So here we go. The main is from a busy street, Rokin:

A typical Amsterdam scene: a tourist looks at the map to orient himself:

More tourists, near the Central Station:

Animal-rights activists gather signatures outside the Ben & Jerry's 
store, protesting the use of eggs from industrial farms where the 
chickens are kept in small cages:

And finally a warning: do not park illegally in Amsterdam. Do not let 
your meter expire, especially if you have foreign license plates:
