A day in Amsterdam, in July, what should they do?
A day in Amsterdam would be spent:
1. Picking up any bike in a bike rack and taking it for a ride?
2. Walking through the red light district
3. Going to the Picasso Museum
4. Going to the Tulip Fields
What would you do?
Your comments are welcome and appreciated.
Thank you.

The Dutch Resistance Museum was very informative. If you're curious about the interior of those beautiful 17th- and 18th-century canal houses, you could visit either the Museum Van Loon or the Museum Willet-Holthuysen. And definitely try some of their great fries and mayonnaise! The mayonnaise is available in several flavors; one of my favorites was the one made with green peppercorns.

1. *NO* if you want to take a bike ride I highly recommend you go on a tour outside the city. Riding a bike in Amsterdam is not for rookies. You'll understand what I mean when you see the literally thousands of bikes lining the streets. Unless you can ride safely, hold an umbrella, talk on your cellphone, while smoking a cigarette, in high heels... than you are not ready for biking in Amsterdam!
2. YES, but that only takes an hour or so. Stop by one of the erotic museums while you're in the neighborhood.
3. MAYBE or one of the other museums
4. NO for reasons mentioned above
Personally, I would take a canal boat ride & go to Vondelpark for a picnic then in the evening somewhere in the Leidseplein for dinner and maybe a show.
<One full day in night in Amsterdam is better than none at all.> Actually I don't agree plus A'dam is not one of my favorite cities, but that is neither here nor there I guess.
