We're on Ijburg, in the Ij. This was once a bay but is technically now a lake, I think. We have cycled East of Amsterdam city centre for only 20 minutes, crossing big roads and big bridges (both a novelty in Central Amsterdam) and now we ride beneath billboards of smiling young people holding the keys to their new apartments. These islands are floating yuppie barracks.
