Fantastic pictures, Beth!! An exalt from me! I have been to Amsterdam several times and have yet to see all the tulips in bloom - that's quite a sight and your ability with that camera is amazing!

Did you stay at the Piet Hein Hotel?? Good friends of mine own that hotel and I saw that you mentioned "Piet Hein" on one of these photos.

Thank you Sandy! Too cool that you are friends with the owners! How did you meet them?

Your link just took me back to the main OPF page...?

Happy, thank you. I have never seen so many before either!

This truly was a bucket list item.

Hi Beth,

Not sure how that link got in there?

I modified it and took it off!

I met Chris and Brigette, the owners of Piet Hein Hotel, in 2008 when a friend and I went to Paris and Amsterdam - she wanted to go visit her friends in Amsterdam but was afraid to travel alone so we both made the trip - first to Paris and then took the train to Amsterdam. Her friends just happened to be the owners of the Piet Hein which is of course where we stayed while in Amsterdam! Lovely hotel and they are such great people - we had a wonderful time and they treated us like royalty! And now, her friends are also my friends - I have been back to visit them twice and hopefully will go again if I get to make a Paris trip this fall.
