Another quick update on the adventures of Dan, Gail, Bruce, and Pam

Amsterdam literally, "The Dam on the River Amstel" is the capital and most populated city of the Netherlands. It has a population of around 922,000 within the city proper. Located in the Dutch province of North Holland, Amsterdam is colloquially referred to as the "Venice of the North", for its large number of canals, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Amsterdam was founded at the mouth of the Amstel River, which was dammed to control flooding. Originally a small fishing village in the 12th century, Amsterdam became a major world port during the Dutch Golden Age of the 17th century, when the Netherlands was an economic powerhouse . Amsterdam was the leading centre for finance and trade as well as a hub of secular art production.
