Amstelpark: Alex's paradise!

Sunday brought gorgeous weather to Amsterdam, so we ventured out to learn the Metro and visit Amstelpark. The Metro was pretty simple to navigate even with our double stroller (an awesome lady at Expat Help gave me her old one for free!).

 
After a one stop Metro ride, and short 10 minute walk, we arrived. It was so neat! Around each corner we found new treasures. Hidden gardens, water features, animals...even a windmill.

 

 

The park also had a miniature golf place where we enjoyed a latte and poffertjes (small, powdered sugar covered pancakes..Yum!)

The kids were somewhat impressed but ready to get out of the stroller. We saved the best for last. One whole side of the park contained a small petting zoo, a huge playground for all ages, and a small amusement park. Alex was in heaven! He did not want to leave.

 

 

 

This was hilarious! Alex barely fit in there with Jake.

Chicken nuggets and curry...actually tasty.

Enormous table and chairs

 We will definitely be visiting here again soon!
