On day two in Amsterdam I had a very nice breakfast on my boat where I got to chat with both my Airbnb hosts.
It was time to head off early for the free walking tour I booked Free Dam Tours. It was an informative introduction to the city and worth the 20 Euros (Free but it is customary to tip).
After the tour I was starving so I decided it was time to try a pancake for lunch. Of course I had to do a savory one because I am weird like that and rarely get sweet cravings.
Next up is Pozenboot.
I arrive at Poezenboot at 1:30 PM and it was good thing I didn’t arrive any later since they just about distributed all the visitation tickets for the day. Poezenboot is only open 13:00-15:00 PM and only on certain days. Visits are first come first served and limited in size. Luckily I got in.
What we have is a cat rescue and sanctuary on a boat house in the Amsterdam canals. It is kitschy and fun. It was a good visit but most of the kitties were sleeping.
After kitty town it is time for the long walk to Moco where I can see artists such as Banksy, Kusama and also below.
Keith Haring
Daniel Arsham
Finally I decided to wander through Vondelpark before going back. It is a pretty park.
It was a long walk back. Phone is dead luckily I made it to the circular road that directs me to my airbnb. It is still about a mile away but luckily it is straight shot- no more veering off in the wrong direction by following the canals.
Poor feet so beat up. I have the best sleep I have had in a long while.
Sounds like you had having a wonderful start to your trip.
These write ups will be also enjoyed by you in future years.

It is so hard to take the time to really recall my days. I have to force the downtime on myself.
