The next day we headed over to the Van Gogh Museum, which seems to be a pretty standard thing to do in Amsterdam. I will say I will not really that impressed with it. Yes, there were lots of Van Gogh paintings (and some by other famous painters too), but it was super expensive, so crowded and really loud (because it has an "open" floor plan, all the noise echoed I swear it was like being in a high school gymnasium). Maybe I was jaded because I had been to some really amazing, not crowded museums, but overall was unimpressed. Luckily lunch that day was amazing, so it sort of made things better.
While we were in the Van Gogh museum it started snowing hardcore:
But strangely it was still pretty warm out, about 100x better then Berlin, thankfully.

Then as we walked back to our hotel we happened to walk by a grocery store that had a slanted roof- which about a billion kids were using for sledding! How awesome is that! And their sleds were so awesome, too-
How cute are those kids? It made ME want to sled...but we couldn't find a store to buy a sled at-unfortunately.
