Thursday, May 16, 2013. Tulip Fields/ A visit to Gouda. The tulip fields were absolutely amazing! Next we went to a little town called Gouda. Yes, it is where gouda cheese comes from. We walked around the market place, sampled cheese, and took pictures of this quaint little town. We had French crepes for dinner and then drove back to the hotel. It had been a long, but fun day.

The ship was full and we had to stand up the 1st hour, but then were able to get seats the rest of the way. It was relaxing and warm. Saturday, August 18, 2012. Yesterday ...

Friday, February 8, 2013. Museum of Naturkunde (Natural History). Today we went to the Museum for Natural History. What a neat place. I wish we had taken little Bob there when he came to visit. The theme for the museum is "The Evolution of the Earth and Life on it". There are sections about the cosmos and the Solar System, The Earth, Minerals, Birds, Animals, and Insects. All were very interesting. I think we even saw the spider that ate Dan! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Bob and His Blog.

Friday, December 14, 2012. Today we went to another Christmas Market. It was located in front of the Charlottenburg Schloss. It was a more traditional market, not as commercialized as some of them. It was set up kind of like the Orange County Fair. We walked around looking at all sorts of things, but buying only "Junk Food" to eat. It was good junk food though! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Monday, June 17, 2013. The most defining feature of Heidelberg is the castle, considered the most magnificent castle ruin in Germany. It took 400 years to build. It suffered sever damage during the 30 year war and the war of Succession. Rebuilding was started but when lightening struck in 1764, attempts at restoration stopped.

Sunday, June 2, 2013. Today we went to Rotterdam. After a buffet breakfast, we attended a presentation about Windmills and Polders. A polder is reclaimed land from the sea. Through a long process, the water is pumped away and the land dried and used to live on. There is a lot of polder land in the Netherlands. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bob and His Blog.
