Yes, those photos were taken around 21:45 / 9:45pm in the park closest to where I’ve been living since I landed here in Amsterdam on Monday. What the photos can’t convey is how lively the scene was. This wasn’t an organized event — simply tons of folks out enjoying the evening of a long and lovely sunny summer’s day, with music and picnics, dancing and drink and lots of conversations. I enjoyed a long walk through the park, carefully noting what time it finally became harder to read my watch. It was well after 10:15. Toto, we’re not in northern California any more…
(so much world, so little time....)
