Amsterdam - Running in Vondelpark

I got up early this morning and went for a run in the beautiful Vondelpark, located directly to the left of my hotel. It has a 3.3 km loop that winds around ponds, fountains, sculptures, wide grassy areas, funky playgrounds, local restaurants, stately mansions, and pretty much anything else you will ever want to see.

This round metal fence is apparently where you clip all the keys and other valuables that people lost while running through the park. Everything here is a piece of art....even the lost & found!

Came back and had a scrumptious breakfast at the MoMo restaurant in the Park Hotel. It is called an American breakfast buffet, but I don't recall seeing half of the things I ate at any buffet in Eden Prairie. Chocolate sprinkles on toast and roasted tomatoes with pesto are not typical EP fare. :)
