A tourist in my own country

After spending a nice relaxing week with my family we picked Bruce' parents up from the airport and started our trip with them. They had come over to The Netherlands eight years ago for our wedding but that had been a very quick and busy trip so they decided to come over again and see some more of this "beautiful" ;) country.
After picking them up we headed to our hotel to drop off our luggage. The hotel was pretty close to the ocean and in the middle of the tulip fields. The tulip season had just finished so we didn't get to see the beautiful sites. But here is a picture of what it would have looked like.

The big complex in the middle was our hotel.

After dropping off the luggage we quickly picked up some lunch at a little bakery and walked along the ocean board walk.

After that we took a scenic drive to Amsterdam. There we visited the Anne Frank House. It was very interesting to see where she had lived and under which circumstances.






After visiting the Anne Frank House we continued on to the beautiful (touristy) city of Volendam. You can't visit The Netherlands without seeing this cute little city.

Stay tuned for more adventures!
