Today began with a boat tour of the canals of Amsterdam. It was a great way to start the day- we learned a lot about the history and architecture of the city all while leisurely floating around town. Then we walked to the VanLoon and Willet-Holthuysen canal houses. These museums were beautiful old homes with wonderful art and fabulous gardens. We spent time at the Jewish Historical Museum- an old synagogue and then went on to Our Lord In The Attic - a Catholic church hidden in a canal house for 200 years - both had very touching stories. Lastly we visited Amsterdam's Old Church.
