Having Fun in the Netherlands

---

Hello all! After the last update, we walked around downtown Rotterdam. It's a totally new city because most of it was destroyed in 1945. All of the architecture is ultra modern and one building even has an entire wall about 25 storeys high that is sort of a digital screen. We took a boat tour from Rotterdam to the windmills at Kinderdijk. There are 19 of them there. One is for touring and the other ones are houses now! The next day we took the train into Amsterdam. We strolled through the main streets and took in the Vincent Van Gogh Museum and checked out the Heineken brewery. Amsterdam is full of all sorts of places to help with the munchies! No trip to Amsterdam is complete without a walk through the Red Light district....eye-opening to say the least! hahaha

This morning we walked through the cheese market in Gouda (the town where we are staying) and then took a train to Delft which is where we are now. We're about to hit up the Delft market and tour the Royal Delft where they make all the blue and white china.
Tomorrow we leave for Germany to take in the Rhine River.

No photos this time. It's tough to upload them in the internet cafes but don't worry...we've already had to burn a full CD of pictures!!!

Take care!
