To the kringloopwinkel today!
It took some exploring to find a way around the construction blocking bicycle traffic on both Straat van Messina and Rembrandtweg where they go over the Beneluxbaan on bridges. I managed to find a bike tunnel to the south after trying north first. And after the tunnel, I overshot the store going north and had to turn around. The way home was much more direct!
I've been in grungier thrift stores than Kringloopwinkel Amstelveen. It was fairly clean and free of dirt and grime. What was amazing was the clutter. With the exception of a tiny little 'store' (actually a garage filled to the rafters with junk) run by a little old lady in Baraga, MI, it was the most cluttered thrift store I've ever been in! There was a whole room-sized portion of the first floor that was basically inaccessible. I had to look across the top, or climb up to the stair landing and look down, to see what was in it.
