My recent trip to Amsterdam

I went to Amsterdam earlier this week and hopped on a train and went out to Haarlem which is only about a 15 minute train ride out of the city. It was a very nice way to spend a day. Another crew member took the pictures in the first set and was gracious enough to send them to me, the second set are pictures that I took. Enjoy them!

Some interesting facts about The Bavo Church pictured below

The Pipes have 68 registers and 5068 PIPES!!
The construction of the present church started in 1347
The Church became a protestant church in 1578
The organ was installed in 1735
