Spring View. NEMO from Hannekesboom, Amsterdam, The Netherlands

Spring here is very late and very cold. So trees are not yet at their full green. Hence this view of ship-shaped NEMO, Amsterdam's science museum. From across the waters of the Oosterdok It looms over a pleasant cafe-restaurant - Hannekesboom - near the railway tracks next to a favorite haunt of mine, Shaffy's Garden.

On Wednesday last week some Covid-19 restrictions were lifted. Sidewalk cafes are allowed open now between 12 noon and 18.00. But they haven't been very crowded yet because the icy polar winds prohibit all but the most hardy from sitting out of doors. At the bottom left two brave souls.
