Hi, any ideas who’s cat this is? Anybody recognise it or seen it around before. I wanted to check it’s ok.

There are so many open storefronts on Zeilstraat and they do this.

Inspired by the recent post I saw on here about leaving one star reviews for places that show a tipping option when paying by card.

I do the same but for places that flat out refuse to serve you tap water. We went to a pizza restaurant recently and ordered a few pizzas and beers and wine. Like having water with my meal for digestion and to keep hydrated whilst drinking alcohol. Refused to serve tap water and came up with some feeble excuse. The food was good, but wouldn’t return because of this. I left a review on Google maps and the owner went off on a big rant.

It is well known nowadays for the detrimental effects of bottled water and tap water is perfectly fine and drinkable in Amsterdam, it is about time it became mandatory to serve it like is the case in other countries. Is this a pet peeve of anyone else.

Pretty much the same view every day for the last 5 years or so: municipality cannot fix the bin, people cannot put their rubbish into bin (making birds happy), residents have parties and in the public yard but dont bother to clean, dumping the rubbish onto kids playground…
been around but have never seen such mess

Anyone else experienced male teens, guessing around ¹⁴⁄₁₅ throwing sizable rocks at people from their bikes? it happened to us walking back from the cinema Friday.

We’ve also experienced them spitting on us and others the last couple years.

there seems to be a bit of a pattern of male violence in the park perpetrated by this age range.

(and before anyone makes the comment - they were seemingly white Dutch kids)

Shot on my Leica MP & Leica Minilux. Let me know if curious for more details!

Everyone that we met was so kind, welcoming, and friendly. Already looking forward for a return trip as KLM now has direct flights out of my home (San Diego). Hope you enjoy the photos!

During the check-in on my doctor’s website.

I wonder who still speaks that kind of Dutch…
