Speaking of transportation (last post)!
I've been collecting these 3-wheelers ever since coming to Amsterdam in April. I'm sure I'll keep finding other kinds but these are enough for now. I have never seen anything like this in my life and still get quite a kick outta them!

No regular car can fit in between these posts in Amsterdam, which is the point! But these 3-wheelers can, making parking easier for them.
Just think! You could have had your last package delivered by one of these!
The taxi 3-wheelers are often motorized.
You can hear them coming around the bend and need to watch out for them.
But just as many "taxis" are NOT motorized. Just pedal power!
See! How cool is THAT!
Look at how HUGE the driver appears to be!
And a different feel for size with Donica standing tall next to one!
I think what amazes me more than anything is how much construction business is carried on by them.
Like I said, I've never seen these in other countries (well, except for the taxi bikes). I wonder if they use motorcycle motors or what? And is the gas mileage the advantage?
So many questions, so little time.

Tomorrow I fly to London for a Shutterchance meet-up and will return on Sunday (when Donica returns from Hannover). Isn't it fun how the blogging world opens up so many new friendships that never would have happened just a few short years ago!
