Kinderdijk





Welcome to Kinderdijk in The Netherlands! I encourage you to check out the history of these fabulous Windmills that date back as far as 1740. 

https://www.kinderdijk.com/ 




We arrived and purchased tickets for the Hop On/Off boat so we could enjoy every aspect of the windmills from all angles. Two of them had Museum information inside which we found very interesting. Some of the windmills are now private homes... can you imagine living in a windmill? Lovely...











It seemed fitting to capture the Dutch flag in the photo above.



The roofs are thatched and all of them are so well looked after it is hard to believe their age...  



Thank you for your visit and I hope you enjoyed a glimpse into our day...

Hugs
Wanda

    You made some beautiful photo's Wanda! I enjoy seeing Kinderdijk through your eyes! You know, I skated there a few times. Really spectacular in winter too!
