It's just past the middle of November - far too early to think about snow in Amsterdam. Normally we have to wait until January - although in recent years Amsterdam has seen many winters without much, if any, snow.

But we can dream, right...

Amsterdam in the snow
Amsterdam is beautiful any time of the year, but you’ve got to have seen in under a fresh blanket of snow at least once in your life. Look:

Bellamystraat, Amsterdam in 1981 and today
In 1981 there is car parking along the right hand side of the road, and also on the side road in the distance. Today there is no car parking visible, just lots of greenery.

An embarrassingly obvious point, but...

This. Is. Illegal.

If anything like the rule of law were in force, Trump couldn't arbitrarily increase a tariff because he is annoyed.

In important and increasing ways, the rule of law in the US no longer exists.

Originally, the bridge was nameless, but informally referred to as the “Raambrug” due to its proximity to Raamsteeg. Additionally, it was also known as the “Appelmarktbrug” or “Appelmarktsluis,” due to the nearby apple market that was once held in the vicinity.

Amsterdam's Dam Square. Both the Royal Palace and the Nieuwe Kerk ('New Church') are still under renovation. The pink tram? An advertisement for the Barbie The Dream Experience.

Several demonstrations in Amsterdam today. The biggest, an anti-immigrant demo, was moved from Dam Square to Museumplein due to safety concerns. Police and riot police units are on stand-by at Dam Square.

I see lots of breathless Dutch news today about (to paraphrase) f***ing tyfus kanker expats driving house prices to unaffordable levels.

Oddly these pieces ignore the title of the original study: “Internationals increasingly become buyers, but their role remains limited and locally concentrated”
