Christmas night was a lovely and quiet one here, in Amsterdam. The streets were almost empty and the Christmas lights were shining here and there, not too much, but just enough to create a cosy atmosphere. Taking a stroll around the canals and the beautiful Jordaan neighbourhood was a real delight!

We hope you had a Merry Christmas, wherever you are!
