Parks & Nature
Just 20 minutes on the bicycle and you are in the countryside. Nice view over grass lands with sheep and cows, the IJsselmeer The big lake), many birds and old traditional Dutch villages. If you are looking for something different and outside the city its a very nice day out.

If you take the ferry to the NDSM you will find a different Amsterdam. These old Dock lands are very populair these days. Noorderlicht is one of the restaurants/bars. I picked this one because they have a very nice terrace outside.

One of the best Italian restaurants of Amsterdam. Reservation necessary. If you want a special restaurant, to celebrate something for example, here you have great food and wine. Requires a bit higher budget.

Swell locals as tourists love this place. It's situated in an old Dutch wind mill. So you can take that one of you sight seeing bucket list :-)
They have very good beers, but the beers are strong. I can drink 2 beers, sometimes more (because they are so good tasting) but after 2 beers I prefer to walk home instead of cycling :-)
My favorite beer is the Zatte or the white beer, called an IJwit.
The brewery has a great (but crowded) terrace and always fun.
And good to know, its only open from 2 pm-8 pm.
