Let it be known that Amsterdam is NOT my favorite city! It has some good points, and I am happy we went, but I don't have a huge need to go back any time soon. Well, except to fly home!
On Tuesday, we took a day trip to Leiden. If I came back to Holland, I would stay here. What a charming little city. We toured a windmill that still works - we even got to go out on the balcony area and into the uppermost area to see the mechanics of how it worked to mill the grain. Very cool!
We also toured a historical science instrument museum (I know some of you think this would be so boring, but we thought it was fascinating). Ancient medical instruments, microscopes, and such. And a lovely courtyard with a play area that was educational.
This was a great day!
