No "Smoking"
They've already stolen it a few times. People from other countries are buying copies of it. The originator of the design is suing the city. A marketing company is selling t-shirts and postcards with the symbol to people around the world. And...it's hitting the news around the world.
What is it?
It's the sign and the symbol that the city posted recently to forbid smoking dope in public - in an area of the city called "De Baarsjes".
Spelling Checker
Amsterdam city council is still saving for a spelling checker though.. Look how they spell "period" on ALL of the signs.
It will be nice when it is finished
Work going on in the part of Amsterdam west of Dam Square.
Just a few weeks ago
Boy time flies. Wouldn't want to do this today....
It's a beginning
We've decided to set up this blog to keep track of what's going on, what we come across and what we experience living and working in Amsterdam.
If there is something you want to know or learn about Amsterdam, just let us know in the comments. You can set us on an adventure in our own city.
We're also going to create a new CSS template for the blog.
