It is November in Amsterdam, which can only mean one thing (well, 2 if you get excited about the appearance of Sinterklaas in the streets) but I am focused on the bone-chilling RAIN. Last year I kept track on a calendar of how many days it rained in November (answer: 24). This year I have given up marking up the calendar... it is just too depressing.
I did happen to find a sliver lining to all of this in recent days. With inclement weather comes an increase of tram use - and dogs happen to ride trams here! Each miserable outing I have embarked on has found me sitting among several dogs. It certainly livens things up. Lola has become an avid tram rider as well - but we have to stick to non rush-hour journeys - as she fights for a window seat every time!
