Ed. note: I meant to post this last week but ran into a little trouble with my hard drive. Things are back up and running now—thanks for your patience!
The last time I was in Amsterdam—nearly 20 years ago—I caught a very bad virus by the second day and spent the rest of the trip stuck in bed at the hotel. This time, I was determined to see as much of the city as possible, and I think we did a pretty good job. We spent three days in Amsterdam in early October, and after a week in Paris with unseasonably warm temperatures, Amsterdam was rainy one minute, sunny the next, and chilly for all of it—but in a very autumn-appropriate way. Packing for both legs of the trip was definitely a challenge, but it thankfully worked out for the best. Here's everything I wore in Amsterdam.
