Amsterdam, Netherlands, Day 3 - Sandeman's tour, The Hague, Japanese Garden, Clingendael Park

June 7th Epic day of exploring Amsterdam and the Hague.  I walked at least 26 km today (16.1 miles) which is more than the distance of a half marathon.  There's a really beautiful Japanese Garden, only open 6 weeks in the year located in The Hague, a city about an hour's drive away from Amsterdam, so I paid a visit and did a lot of exploration.

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Day 2 - Anne Frank House, Westerkerk, Red Light District

June 6th Another day of epic exploring in Amsterdam.  I was going to do the Anne Frank house tour in the morning, followed by a city tour in the afternoon and then the red light district tour in the evening but due to crazy long queues outside the Anne Frank house I didn't do the city tour and instead went up the Westerkerk tower and then did the red light district tour in the evening.

Amsterdam, Netherlands, Day 1 - Downtown Amsterdam

I was in Amsterdam from June 5th to 8th, primarily for an interview with an unnamed company.  Basically it was just like the last time I had an interview in Norway**.  It was quite good timing as well since the last time I was there in 2013 I didn't get to see much of the city as it was just stop overs, but this time I actually got to stay a few nights and actually explore.
