A lot more photo bang for the effort than I ever expected! The politie was right there with them, and I think the march was more obstructed by photogs like me than by law enforcement. Hey, it's Amsterdam, if you want to organize a street blockage on a sunny Saturday, nobody's gonna get too wound up about it. I live about a block from here. It was very shady along a lot of the route, so when they crossed this bridge at Jacob Van Lennekade we all went crazing snapping shots as they came into the sun.

I love a serendipitous bonus. It's like your higher power tossing you a little lagniappe.
