Sunny chilly and turisty Amsterdam

It's always really nice to go for a short walk in Amsterdam...Yesterday we dropped by a café somewhere between the canals and could do what all locals do: observe the people. It is not a matter of bad manners but healthy curiosity. When we took a cup of coffee we realized that today you have to order a glass of wine! Everywhere around people were enjoying a glass of (sparkling) white wine.
And most of them wore short-sleeved t-shirts and exposed their faces to the Sun.
It makes the whole difference to your mood.
