Thanks to your suggestions we had an amazing trip:

Rijks Museum - Lovely building filled with great artwork. It's vast though and my 2 hour attention span kicked in before we saw it all.

Van Gogh Museum - loved it! Laid out really well so it gives a timeline of his work and state of mind plus excerpts from letters to and from his brother. A must.

Anne Frank Huis. Maybe the 1 hour queue dampened my enthusiasm but was expecting a little more atmosphere. It's well done, quite moving and worth a visit but a little rushed as you're just part of a mazy queue through it.

Canal Lovers cruise - great 1 hour cruise with interesting commentary and lovely sights. We even rammed a couple of sightseers in a row boat which added to the experience!

Cassa Rosso - Live Show - more fun than arousing - maybe I should seek some advice from Pele. 'Actresses' and 'actors' very mechanical - expensive for what it is.

420 Coffee shop - I found all of these places quite seedy and full of undesirable looking student types. I was recommended the Lemon Spacecake and told a quarter would give me a buzz. It didn't. I ate 3/4 of it and still nothing. I think, on reflection it may have been Mr Kiplings.

Sea Palace - great recommendation. Mrs Pikey was raving about it. Lovely food.

Febo - nice chips. Wasn't drunk or high enough to try the manky looking burgers and sausages behind the glass.

Sex Museum - very amusing half hour. A lot of photos of some VERY hairy growlers!

Overall loved it - and would go back next week if I could. Very lovely people - so helpful.
Transport system puts ours to shame - reliable, clean.
It's now one of my very favourite places.

Thanks to you all for the tips.

 


You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name.

Cassa Rosso had about 3 premises - the one we went in was upstairs from the banana bar. And one of the 6 'acts' was a banana show.
She asked for a couple of volunteers but I assumed it was some government plan to get me to eat healthily so politely refused.
