Our LP guidebook suggested a restaurant off the beaten path near the St. Salvatorskathedraal. The city has a huge Catholic influence (unlike Holland) with a Madonna statue on many houses and street corners. This more modern Madonna was at the end of our hotel street. The restaurant, Lokkedize, did not disappoint with its great atmosphere and yummy mediterranean cuisine.
After dinner, we walked to the t'Zand square near the Concertgebouw. In the middle of the square was a most interesting water fountain with sculptures. There were the bicyclists including a mother with a child basket in back, the leaking mermaid, and the ladies with birds on their heads. It was beautiful that night and we enjoyed our long stroll home along the canals, hoping the sprinkles did not change to full-out rain. We lucked out and made it home before the thunderstorms let go.
