Yahav and Deirdre are lovely people. They were extremely helpful and I enjoyed talking to them. I would have missed the Museum of Dutch Resistance if Yahav had not mentioned it! At first I was a little disappointed when I saw that their flat was not quite as close to the city centre as I had imagined, but in the end I think it was well so. I got to experience a part of town far from the usual tourist trails. It is a pleasant area, with children playing in the street and grownups sitting on benches in front of their houses in the evening (weather permitting). Two of the trams stopping nearby seem to be made to order: No. 7 goes to the Rijksmuseum, the van Gogh Museum etc., No. 13 to the Anne Frank House, the Dam (central square) and the Central Station. All in all a very, very enjoyable experience.
