I am going to Amsterdam in a couple of weeks for 3 days, 2 nights. Any top tips for things to do?

Rachel, if you email me, I'll forward a copy of our recent trip notes that may provide some ideas for you.

Definitely a canal boat ride, the Anne Frank house, and at least one art museum (there's one for Rembrandt, one for Van Gogh, and one that's variety; I think that's the Rijksmuseum.) The area around the Royal Palace is lovely. Lots of shopping, great dining. Be sure to try a pancake restaurant, and some authentic Indonesian fare!

I second Beth's recommendations -- the Rembrandts and Vermeers are at the Rijksmuseum. And I enjoy just walking around the inner canals. But watch out for the bikes -- they seem to have absolute right of way and they claim it!

It's covered above and just about right for two days. But, to elaborate on "Indonesion fare", make sure you go to a rice-table (Rijsttafel). This is an Indonesion fare (something like Spanish tappas) where you get a variety of small plates of meats, fishes, vegetables and sauces (mild to spicy) served with rice. If you can handle it, order the spicy along with good Dutch Beer. A good one in Amsterdam is Restaurant Selecta; good food, great ambience (art and music) and even people watching through the picture windows.
