I Amsterdam Photos and Story By Ron James I didn’t think much about Amsterdam when we booked a Baltic cruise with Celebrity Cruises. Stockholm, Copenhagen and especially St. Petersburg had my attention. All I really knew about Amsterdam was that women displayed their wares in the narrow alleys of its Red Light District and that drug dens full of young new-aged hippies were as common as taco shops are in my home city of San Diego. (Both were true to a certain extent; more on them later.) As I began to plan our port activities, the more I learned about Amsterdam, the better it looked. Unlike the first two visitor attractions just mentioned – neither is in my demographic wheel house – I was drawn to its rich history, eclectic architecture new and old, world-class cultural attractions, and energetic free-spirited people. The number of museums alone is amazing – Amsterdam has the highest density of museums per capita in the world. It is home to the Van Gogh Museum, the Anne Frank House, the Hermitage Amsterdam and the Rembrandt House Museum. My wife and I tried to visit as many as we could in three days, Top: Locals and visitors watch the world go by Left: Coffeshops line the alleyways of the Red Light district. You won’t find much coffee in these shops, but what they serve can put a smile on your face. winedineandtravel.com | 13
