Thanks for the concern, Ellie Mae 😊😊. We took a decision we weren't going to worry about the bad guys while we were there, otherwise it would be a victory for them. Walking through the Red Light District of Amsterdam on Saturday night with hundreds, possibly thousands, of people in the streets, we thought the bad guys had a long way to go to interfere with that level of freedom and freedom of expression. And that the CCTV and plain-clothes police were probably working really well, because we didn't see a single unpleasant incident despite the fact that a lot of the young lads from the UK and US were clearly drunk. Have some more work to do now then I'll get to the job of finishing my first post. There will be more after that! Looking forward to getting back to reading yours! 😊😊

Hi there, @mother2chicks - I've just posted my first post and am now working on the next ones. But first I'm going to treat myself to reading what you've been posting! 😊😊
