My partner and I just returned to Edinburgh from a wonderful break in Amsterdam. We used the forum postings for a lot for advice, so thank you posters and responders!

We were in Amsterdam for 5 nights so had plenty of time to do everything we wanted - Van Gogh Museum, canal trip, visit to the RLD, sitting about having a beer or coffee (we did quite a lot of that actually) and generally forgetting the stresses of normal day-to-day life. We even managed a day trip to Hilversum to visit a friend thanks to the very efficient public transport system (never been in a city with trams that I didn't like :-) )

There are plenty of sights that we didn't see this time round as we promised ourselves that we'll be back for another break before long. just hope it's not too long.
