Windmills and Other Sites

Our trip is winding down and I thought I would post a few more pictures. If I had to do it again, of course I would do a few things differently. I would make Brussels a day trip from Brugge since our hotel was cheaper in Brugge and the food was better. Also Brussels has not wowed me and a weekend round trip is just as much as a weekend one way on the train. Anyway, onto the pictures.

We stayed in Delft after leaving Amsterdam. It was charming and quiet. We loved our hotel, de Emauspoort. They provided a fabulous breakfast with fresh breads from their bakery. This is the view from the New Church tower, 376 steps up.


We rented bikes in Delft and rode to The Hague. With my short legs they had to rent me a youth bike

We took a train and bus from Delft to the Kinderdijk, where there are 19 windmills. It was a blustery day but very beautiful

On the way back from the Kinderdijk we stopped in Rotterdam and saw a very cool museum, the Boijmans Van Beuningen. They had this awesome coat rack system that looked like an installation, but was just a practical coat rack for visitors

We also saw the cool cube houses in Rotterdam
