So clean, organized, and a happy place, until winter and then it is cold, gray and wet...oh did I say cold? But I still loved Amsterdam, Leiden where we lived and The Hague. The trains and buses were wonderful. We did a trip by car into Belgium, wonderful way to see the world. So glad you had such lovely people to take you around.Sylviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10507213631107704525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603420107473421569.post-19312501309688978672017-08-26T00:55:19.351+01:002017-08-26T00:55:19.351+01:00Beautiful photos from Netherlands, my friend.

Pretty little houses with the canals running along front. You visit such interesting places. I feel like we're living on a big island here -- a really big island -- and we can travel for weeks and not see such a change in culture. There is some change, certainly, and our landscape and weather are hugely different from one part of the country to the other, but the culture differences in Europe are striking. You always look so cute in your photos, and Stella, too. She looks like a nice person and is definitely a good hostess!Leslie Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12242569371751832426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5603420107473421569.post-72413049325393450122017-08-25T10:40:30.553+01:002017-08-25T10:40:30.553+01:00Wow Ros, what a gorgeous place and fabulous friend...Wow Ros, what a gorgeous place and fabulous friends you have! I loved seeing all the photos, those houses are so pretty with the bridges, canals and of course the flowers. I wonder did you purchase one of the crochet items from that adorable shop? You have taken some amazing trips my friend and I LOVE seeing and hearing about each and every one of them!! Stella's gardens look so gorgeous...now I just wonder where you are off to next!

On behalf of Marcel, Martijn (our mutual son!!), Jacqueline and Frits I can say that it was the most amazing weekend of this year. Having you here and show you a bit of our world. Geesh Ros today a motnh ago ( the 24th) we had to say goodbye on Schiphol. Looking back at the photos I can tell you that we will meet again. You're family to us and I have so many happy and lovely memories of your visit.

Is that next on your crochet list?

I loved the cute and pretty houses and the bridge with the gate across it. Loved the idea of good food and lots of coffee shops too. The train station looked amazing. Stella and her husband Marcel really showed you a good time and it sure shows in these fabulous photos. Thank you for sharing x (looked like the crocheted animals and dolls you are making in the window of one of the shops...so cute) xMac Mablehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17179537412594312594noreply@blogger.com
