Wooden shoes, cheese and windmills

Last Tuesday, Larry and I flew to Amsterdam as he had a conference to attend on Wednesday and Thursday.  Since I had spent time there back when Tyler was in high school, I had to think of something I hadn't already seen.  I found a countryside tour and off I went…



The first stop was in the village of Marken at a wooden shoemaker.

Next we took a boat ride over to Volendam


where we watched a cheese making demonstration





The third stop was at Zaanse Schans to tour windmills

This is a spice mill

This mill produces peanut oil
