Hallo, Goededag!


Hello, Good day!  Our travels this week took us to the Netherlands (Holland).  This is where my family is from!  We saw pictures of windmills and tulips.  We talked about how they travel around in boats and on bicycles.  We learned about how wooden shoes are made.  We even learned about a very unique way that they move their furniture into their tall, narrow houses!  Enjoy some of the places we saw today...

Tall, narrow houses built on the canals.

Canals of Amsterdam.

Windmills that cover the country side.

Hooks at the tops of the houses, used to lift and swing furniture in through the windows.

Handmade wooden shoes.
