         Final Day of Castles along the Danube & Rhine



Beautiful Zaanse Schans, the Dutch Village




On the top of the balcony of the Dutch Windmill


The ages of the Dutch Wooden Shoes on the display




Camilla in Dutch Wooden Shoes Shop


Dtuch Wooden Shoe(Clog) Shop & Repair Shop


The young Dutchman demonstrated us how to make
a Dutch clog from the piece of wood in the machine. 
 Today the machine is popular(the hand work has
 almost disappeared).  Clogs mean comfortable
 slip-on shoes.




Dutch House with  flowers and boats along
the canal in Edam, Netherlands about one hour from
Amsterndam


Beautiful landscaping


Fortuna Hotel where we, the tourists had
Dutch Apple Pie & coffee





Delicious Apple Pie
(I asked for the recipe, but it is private)





Beautiful wooden boats in Edam

Bill & Camilla at the building that sways gently

BloeMen Market, the floating markets at Spingel,
selling flowers & plants.  Tulips are very popular in
Amsterndam.









We were in the airplane on the way back to USA after
we had a blast journey.  The beautiful sunrise was shown
from the window of the airplane.


Hope, you enjoy viewing all the photos that we traveled all
2 weeks.  I had shot about more than 2, 000 photos.
