Hallo, Goede Morgen! We just left the Netherlands after spending two days with John and Annelies and their two kids Nadine and Vincent. They took us into Amsterdam where we were able to see some city highlights such as the red light district and the home of Anne Frank. We also got to explore some of the areas where windmills were used a few hundred years ago. Yesterday we took a trip into the city of Delft to visit some churches from the 1500's and walk around the city which was amazing. John bought some raw herring that we ate between bread...well...I ate, Heidi ran. After, John and Annelies took us and the kids on a bike ride around their town. I wish they had paths in Upland like they have here. It would make exercising much more enjoyable. We stopped to get some ice cream and watch the ships pull into and out of the harbor. To top it off what bike ride would be complete without Heidi running into a pole, which we got to see. I know she was meant for me as it is something I have done as well. At this time we are on a train headed for Paris where we plan to see all the usual tourist sites. We will post again soon. Thank you John and Annelies for letting us stay in your home.
