Then I got home to Amsterdam two weekends ago and found more snow and ice than usual here, yet still those early daffodils poking up through the remaining snow and ice…QED on the whole ‘source o’ life’ idea, eh? And do, please, note the shopping cart stuck in the ice by my nearest train station, literally on my first walk home after landing early on the 11th…we all know lots of trash and bikes and even cars end up in the canals each year, but rarely do we get to see them suspended in the ice like this!

Two last 2025 A’dam sunrises, in November (left) and June (right). And once the sun moves farther north again, you’ll be able to start seeing how far along that construction across the street has come.

These’ll be the last “city lights” shots from A’dam for 2025, since I’m currently on another continent, photos of which will soon begin appearing in this space 🙂

No idea what those three lights that just showed up in the sky to the east of me one recent evening are. They weren’t moving in the way airplanes do, so your guess is as good as mine.
