Euro 2020 Match Day 7 – Netherlands v Austria

The last game of the day takes place in Amsterdam.

Amsterdam is famous for many things, not all of them savoury.

The canals that criss-cross through the city are wonderful for just strolling along or for stopping for a beer in the sunshine.

I have stayed in both a youth hostel and a luxury hotel in the central hotel district. Twenty years apart and the hotel was paid for by my employer as I was on a work trip. A stark contrast indeed!

Salzburg is up there with my favourite cities in Europe.

A visit before Christmas is especially brilliant with fab markets and idles of festive spirit.

A climb up to the castle gives a brilliant view of the whole city that is bisected by the Salzach River.
