Last August was the SAIL in Amsterdam. A huge sailing ship event with tall ships from all over the world. We took a boat tour along the ships to see them up close, it was very impressive. Unfortunately, the photos never really show how huge these ships really are or how crowded it really was on the canal.
And some official photos that I didn't take, but do a better job of showing the scale of the event:
Back when I lived on Bickers Eiland it was really awesome to see all of these boats and ships pass by my back window. I really miss living in my home city every once in a while.
Looks great. Actually heading to Amsterdam for 2 weeks on Monday. Staying on the canal in a house boat. Any tips for traveling there?
