Resting moment

 Take a break from the amazing hustle and bustle of the city by going to Paul Kooiker's photo exhibition about fashion. The city is really overrun with tourists despite the bad weather and you won't see these here at Foam.

 Oudezijds Voorburgwal filled with stationary cars that can no longer move forward or backward and populated mostly with tourists who can now pull the hair out of their heads that they could ever be so stupid not to take public transportation into the city. The canals were not built for this in the 16th century.

  1. I like Paul Kooiker's photo exhibition... it's different. If my thinking is right, only Canadian tourist take the bus. 【ツ】

  2. Does look like quite a traffic jam. Popped in from a mutual friends blog. It's always fun to meet new bloggers, hope you'll swing by for a visit.

  4. Thank you for introducing me to the work of Paul Kooiker. When visiting a city I always use public transportation. It is a good way to get to know the city. BTW, do you know about or have ever tasted Stam's chocolate candies? They have stores in Amsterdam and Ames, Iowa.

    1. There are no Stam shops in Amsterdam but I googled 3 in surrounding villages. It looks that they sell Dutch cookies and not so much chocolate but I never heard from them or tasted something. Stam is indeed a very common name in Amsterdam.

  5. Dos atmósferas diferentes, en tu fotografías. En la primera se respira paz y tranquilidad y en la segunda el caos de la calle.
    Besos.

  6. That's something worth doing on a winter's day.

  7. Looks like an interesting photo exhibit. The traffic reminds me of Santa Fe, New Mexico, Jackson, Wyoming and other tourist hot spots. Too many cars!!

Because of some annoying messages I have to check the posts sent to my blog. No anonymous remarks, sorry for that.
