Set, go!

The former Naval-base of yesterday's post in Amsterdam has changed in a collection of new businesses of  mostly young people. Look "here" if you want to read more. They made this run track in the street for their own fun in a break I suppose.



Halfway was a message "You can do it".

Naval-base

The Admiralty yards of Amsterdam's former city-centre naval base dates from 1620. The 17th-century gatehouse designed by Daniel Stalpaert is now a national monument.

A large warehouse was built here, which is now the current Shipping Museum.

These are still the original buildings from the outside of the base.

And the other side.

A view from the Naval-base at the Shipping Museum with a replica of a former VOC-ship that sailed to the East-Indies in the 17th century.
