Dear Friends and Family,
Time has been going by quickly in Amsterdam. This letter consists of many things that we did over an extended period of time.
T and I took The Littles to Vondelpark. Vondelpark is a beautiful and peaceful park.

We also relaxed at a cafe called Blauwe Theehuis (Blue Tea House). Blue Tea House is also used as a venue for festivals, weddings, and other events.
**************************************************
The Littles got groomed (or “trimmed” as the Dutch say) for the first time at a nearby place called Dierenboetiek Boco (a Pet Boutique owned by the Boco Family). One of the owners (the daughter), Esther, is always very happy, welcoming, and friendly. She has a cat named Sora that greets the customers. Sora hangs out on the counter and three dogs hang out behind the counter. I was really surprised how well Macy interacted with Sata, maybe Macy is a cat lover? She does bark and growl at every dog she see, regardless of their size – go figure!

The owner said that Macy did a great job, while Moxie on the other hand “was not having it”. T and I felt bad about Moxie’s behavior, so we made sure to give the groomer a good tip. In Amsterdam, tips are not expected, but are greatly appreciated.
Things are going well in Amsterdam and T and I are really enjoying our time in Europe.

Great blog. That’s funny that Macy barked at the dog statue.
