Amsterdamsters, 7: Sama Sebo and the Van Gogh Museum

Tuesday, showers delayed our leaving the campground until noon, so we began the day with a lunch-time rice table at Sama Sebo, an Indonesian restaurant just north of the Rijksmuseum (and across from the Tesla showroom). After lunch, we walked through the gale to the Van Gogh Museum. We might have skipped it, having visited it in 2013, but hey, it was free now that our Museumkaartes have already paid for themselves. After the Van Gogh and another trip to M&S, we headed home for an administrative day in the campground. After two weeks, we'll be ready finally to leave Amsterdam. Oh, fuller coverage of the Van Gogh Museum is at my 2013 post, http://roadeveron.blogspot.nl/2013/06/van-gogh-museum.html.

Lunch; OK as a sampler; much prefer Thai















Me, at a rice table in Amsterdam, 1979; first really spicy food
I'd ever had...














Passing by the Rijksmuseum en route to the Van Gogh















The Koncertegebouw...I never seem to get any closer than this















Rijksmuseum again, not up closer















Inside the VGM; they too have gone to the "no fotos" policy















Looking down from the 3rd floor, park-side: they're building
a colossal new entry; it will move the long lines off the sidewalk
and street out front 

















"What's this on the floor?!"



















The one foto I wanted to get...Vincent's take on Crebain from
Dunland...prescient..."Spies of Saruman!"
