It appears "Tante Mia's" was a bit of a staple in Amsterdam?

I wonder how many cars, people, bicycles, etc. end up in that water?


Just in case drivers needed to make parallel parking even more challenging! Very Happy

It's funny you should mention that, I just watched a segment on Daily planet (discovery.ca) yesterday about the guy who goes around with a grapple on a boat and cleans the canals, seems he scored a bike every few grabs. Had a heap of them on the barge by the end of the day, even got a car.

US Forces In Germany Split Window Convertible

Very cool vintage GI shot taken in Germany, with a U.S. Army Spec 5 (Sgt.) and his 1951 VW Cabriolet somewhere near Wiesbaden, ca. 1962/3.

Enjoy!
