[@lindaedge6674]

Hi mistime and Andy 😊 absolutely love Amsterdam, have done the tour around the canals and Ann Franks museum .so much history in and around the city ❤

[@joycesmith8354]

The sign has been moved across the water, free ferry behind centraal station. Miss going to Netherlands, great vlogs as usual.

[@andyandkirstie]

Ah OK. Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it, we love Amsterdam 💘

[@andreatuckman1084]

When we were there in 2015 the Amsterdam sign was in the Plantage botanical gardens

[@ianshorland982]

Another masterpiece, really enjoyed it, very well constructed video, thanks for sharing.

[@paulatrahern1336]

I’m giggling at this because we did the same itinerary on Ventura but at the Easter of 2019 - our last cruise before Covid...our first stop in Amsterdam was Starbucks! Fabulous vlogs.

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks 😊

Hello Andy & Kirstie. These vlogs of yours are excellent. We were actually on this Ventura cruise and this is bringing it back. Your recommendation of the Beach House on an earlier vlog has made our minds up. We’re back on Ventura next July for Portugal & Northern Spain and the Beach House is definitely on our agenda 😁. Well done with the vlogs, they’re excellent and I look forward to seeing more. Cheers 👍

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks, glad you're enjoying them. Even better that you were on the same cruise! Yes, the Beach House is well worth it. Enjoy on your next cruise!

Nice vlog, very well put together, thanks for sharing 😊

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks, you're welcome!

Enjoyed the vlog as always. My wife (maiden name "Schenkeveld") is Dutch heritage, born here in Victoria, B.C. Canada, so diffidently on our bucket list of travel destinations . *** F.Y.I... Andy & Kristi the Pannekoeken that Kristi was enjoying, is a kind of a cross between an American pancake and a French crêpe , and is a weekly treat for us whether I make them at home or we visit a local restaurant in the area "De Dutch Pannekoek House." Something to story away in your memory banks if you ever get to the West Coast on Vancouver Island.

[@andyandkirstie]

Hey thanks! Will definitely go there if we ever visit. The pancakes were amazing!

[@dennisdalessio8238]

Andy & Kirstie, Very nice review of Amsterdam. You mentioned another Vlogger that recommended the restaurant can you advise who that was. Thanks

[@andyandkirstie]

Hi Dennis, thanks. The channel is 'The endless adventure' a couple from the US who travel full time.

[@dennisdalessio8238]

Thanks

Hi Guys, Thank you your vlogs are so good. We are on Ventura on my birthday ( Dec 13 ) and going to Amsterdam. Will have to have one of those wonderful pancakes!!!! Would love to try those muscles but never caught the name of the restaurant. Thanks again guys.

[@andyandkirstie]

Hi, thanks, glad you like the videos! The restaurant where we ate the muscles was called 'cafe In de waag'.

[@MaDaboutcruisin]

Thank you. Will be sure to let you know how we get on. Your Hawaii vlogs brought back many memories of my 60th birthday cruise on the Golden Princess. An absolute wonderful cruise. Thank you so much guys. @@andyandkirstie

[@townmann5563]

Another great video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@andyandkirstie]

Thank you!

[@DaveStroble]

What a nice day...Thanks!

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah it was ok after all. Thank you!

[@stevenwalker9305]

Hi, Considering this trip on Ventura in December for the Xmas markets. Didn't realise the terminal was so far out of Amsterdam. Are the coaches provided free of charge, how often do they run and until what time ? Thanks

[@andyandkirstie]

Ijmuiden is a 30 minute or so coach journey, however the shuttle service was free and, as we were there two days, it ran 24hrs from the time we docked. The year before we docked in Amsterdam itself, next to the railway station, so that was just a short walk in.

[@stevenwalker9305]

@@andyandkirstie Perfect, thanks

[@Pbchelt]

@@andyandkirstie Great blog how can you tell if the ship docks centrally or 30min out on a cruise?

[@andyandkirstie]

@@Pbchelt Check the itinerary. It would probably say 'transit North Sea Canal' if you're staying in the city itself.

[@MrPantss]

Great video! Who carried the camera when you were walking together?

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks! Nobody carrying a camera, all self-filmed using an insta360 one x 360 camera giving that illusion. The pole it's on is automatically deleted from the shot by the software in post processing.

[@MrPantss]

Andy & Kirstie that is amazing!

[@catherineb6561]

Fantastic as usual!

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks so much!

[@chrishobbs9364]

How do you two stay so slim ?:)

[@andyandkirstie]

We do try and stay active and eat sensibly at home (mostly!)

[@Schenkerflyingv]

I think this is your best video yet. Did you use a drone?

[@andyandkirstie]

Thanks! The drone like shots were actually shot with a 360 camera on a long pole!

[@bertoverweel6588]

The city councel removed the IAMSTERDAM sign , why , we don't know but it's redicuales !

[@andyandkirstie]

Yeah, it seemed like the ideal spot for it.

[@carolyngardner4999]

That’s look like a crepe, instead of a pancakes.

[@andyandkirstie]

Pretty sure they called it a Dutch pancake. It's just thin, so looks like a crepe I guess.
