Grandpa Hats

Lorie’s grandfather is heading to Dublin next week to receive the James Joice humanitarian award. So he needs a good hat for rain and cold. We decided the brown fuzzy one wouldn’t be the best choice, but we agreed I looked funny wearing it.

Amsterdam Sights

This hotel makes good use of being on the corner of the Amstel river and a canal.
