Frimpong in Amsterdam - by Marjan Schavemaker

Amsterdam, the most popular town of the Netherlands, lies on the banks of two bodies of water,
the IJ bay and the Amstel river.
Founded in the late 12th century as a small fishing village on the banks of the Amstel,
it is now the largest city in the country and is a financial and cultural centre.

All cultivated bears feel belittled in front of such a great Museum!	Can you see me in the "e"?	Sunny Amsterdam.	What is the best means of transport in Holland???
Just a little trick to skip the waiting line...	Coffee break!	But being in Amsterdam withouth having a beer is too absurd...	I love these typical Dutch Houses!
All kinds of funny bikes here!	Delft blue in Amsterdam.	Christmas is in the air...	Grab your own bulbs, but leave me here!
Typical Amsterdam house along one of many canals....	No doubts...I'm in Amsterdam!	Ahh!, I can take some sunshine.	A Dutch wheels bench????
I'm not a bear on sale in a shop window!	I didn't know to have distant Dutch relatives...	Well folks I am starving, after all this long walk...	.... otherwise I buy some cannabis instead.
Italians like motorbikes....	Hey, I had Italian beer!	I didn't pay for my beer!	My 15 minutes of FAME!
I took a rest on another red bike,	What an incredible town, it really reminds me a little of Venice!	A celebrity's office	A marvellous place to sit on!
There are sedentary bears in Amsterdam...	The cow didn't like me sitting there.	So many exciting things to do in Amsterdam!	But at the end of the day I was so tired...

btw, niet in de stad maar gewoon thuis, daar is voor Artis de P. ook al heel wat te beleven, kijk zelf maar:-)

Als Amsterdammer vind ik dit heel leuk om te zien, Marjan! Geinig dat Frimpong ook voet op onze grond heeft gezet...:-) Ik weet niet of het je interesseert maar ik heb een dergelijke idee uitgevoerd met onze welbefaamde Amsterdammer Artis de Partis... (onder 'animals' in mijn galleries). Groetjes, Menno
