Today's adventures took us south, to Rotterdam (home of Friesian horses), Gouda (home of Gouda cheese), and The Hague (home of the International Criminal Court). It was a great day!

| A flock of sheep on the side of a major highway, you know, like you see. |
 |
I know I've already posted pictures of the windmills,
but I just think they are so cool, and I can't stop myself. |
 |
| Our horse lover planned a cool field trip to a Friesian horse stable. |
 |
| So beautiful! |
 |
It's hard to explain how harrowing it was to parallel park our standard right next to this canal,
on a street no wider than our car, but my awesome husband pulled it off flawlessly. |

| A lovely lunch at our first European sidewalk cafe |
 |
Ruth's lunch: croquets
She does not know what it was, even after eating it, but she loved it! |
 |
My lunch: The Old Gouda
Every bite was a delight! |
 |
| The cafe sign made us laugh: Eat, Drink & Leave |
 |
| The church in Gouda's center was our view during lunch. |
 |
| A huge cow statue that looks like it's made out of legos: win, win! |
 |
| This alleyway looks like it has a secret. |
