Yes, that's right...I love that place.Sorry it's taken me so long to post about my lovely trip there with some amazing sweet lady friends of mine.
Without further ado.....
This was my itinerary...
We arrived super super late in a city called "Rotterdam" (2nd largest port city...um, in the world, second to ShangHi!) Lovely hotel. Situated in a pretty business-like part of town...no biggee...
First full day: We drove north to a town called Haarlem.
How cute right? We traveled there to visit an amazing museum.
It's the Cory Ten Boom house...the house she and her family actually hid Jews in during WWII. It was amazing. She wrote a book called "The Hiding Place" ...we did get to see this place...actually got to crawl inside the place they'd hide peeps. Very incredible story. Go, now, look her up and marvel at her story! ...ok, please wait till yer done reading this blog entry...
We also walked casually through the streets of Haarlem and it was awesome...That town was simply lovely, especially all the bikes! Really, tons and tons of bikes with cool baskets, carts, wee lil' baby carriers both on the front and backs of them. Awesome...I really want a front seat now for baby James...
Then, Tulips!!!
Paula is one of my dearest friends here in Schweinfurt....
(despite the fact that she went to Tech ;0) )
Can you tell I love this lady????
We toured the grounds of the famous Tulip Festival. This is what happens when you have amazing women with you up to no good..well, just up to taking really goofy pictures!
Yes, yes I did love the shoes...bought some for Noah as a matter of fact...
My fellow goof ball..Tessa....this is what happens when one of us gets bright idea to do this...
And then tries to do with her friend...
I still giggle looking at how much Tess just looks like she's falling...and I'm well, trying to jump...
LOL...what happens at night...with some goofy ladies....
Final day: Ate brunch at a cute lakeside-harbor cafe place. It was awesome to see tons of peeps out running, walking, biking, rollerbladin.....so fun.
ha! Yes, we did...well, not really
Just what I needed.
I loved every last minute of it...These were just a few of our pictures..I'm still waiting for my other lady friends to give me more pics:)
