Feb 28 & 29, 2004
Amsterdam, Netherlands

We had planned to visit Berlin once again on a cheap train ticket, but missed the special rates, so we searched around and found a fast train to Amsterdam for the same price. The weather was fine, and we got to visit 3 museums we had missed on our previous visits- The Rijksmuseum, Rembrandt House, and the Anne Frank House.
A nice weekend trip, we're becoming train addicts. The ICE train we took hit speeds over 180 mph.
