Original Toronto Star caption: The canals of Amsterdam are a joy to residents as well as tourists. Barges and cruise boats and small craft purr through the heart of the city; people stroll by their banks and for the young of Amsterdam they offer a constant fascination. And for the traveller they offer a pleasant; peaceful through the city; a liquid platform from which to view the architecturae and the life of a European gateway that also has enough attractions to qualify as a destination itself.
