Last week I was in Amsterdam a couple of evenings, so most of the images are from there. But first, one of my commuting pictures, in my favorite small town, Zaltbommel: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50.jpg

Then Wednesday night in Amsterdam I stumbled into this beer shop, called De Bierkoning (King of Beers)--and they are not kidding: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt1.jpg

Then I took a walk on Kalverstraat and saw these two French women (I overheard them) who had really caught the Christmas spirit: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt2.jpg

The smaller, residential streets in the center of Amsterdam are also beautifully illuminated: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt3.jpg

Then came the weekend. The weather was definitely not conducive to taking a motorcycle ride: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt4.jpg ...or to sitting on our deck chairs: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt5.jpg

But my son had a party to go to in Amsterdam on Saturday night, so I drove him there and went for a short walk after safely depositing him. Many of the bridges across the canals are like this right now: http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt6.jpg http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt7.jpg http://www.nathanfoto.com/paw/2005/2005_50alt8.jpg

The complete PAW index is at:

and comments/critique are as always gratefully welcomed.

I am off on the annual Christmas trek to Denmark and Poland on Thursday morning, so my next PAWs will most likely come when I am back in the second week of January--unless I end up posting something from my laptop while there.
