Living On the water

Amsterdam people are crazy with anything on wheels (bicycles/rollers/trolleys) and anything floating (boats of any kind and size and Boat houses). I got some shots of boat houses just to give you an idea but I will soon do a proper boat house shooting because it is a very interesting and impressive subject. I'd love to visit a boat house and stay for a while to see if it moves and if yes how much it moves :) In case it's ok for both my wife and me it would be a great accommodation alternative. Boat houses are in the heart of the city and more affordable to buy. Not sure though how much to rent one. Take a look:
These boats are carriers. They travel up to Scandinavia and at the back side people use it as a 'normal' house with their car parking too :)

This is quite impressive. It is a restaurant made on a moving canal bridge. In the evenings it closes to the right and becomes a bridge with two entrances and works as a normal restaurant with a great canal view!

DHL has floating offices like that and they make deliveries around the city!




This is very crazy! Yes, as you see it is a floating boat kids playground!!! :-)





Those bicycles came out of the waters of the canals! Drunk youngsters go crazy at night time :)
