Finally time to visit the “Dutchies”…. haven’t seen them in years and years since i was too young to really remember! It was a really nice few days to spend relaxing with family, sleeping in our own room with nice pillows, eating actual meals (and nutritious too!) THANK YOU!!!
Real Rumikub!
Clogs!!
The weather was nice the first day we arrived, so we enjoyed a nice dinner with everyone on the balcony and reminisced about family and old times. Jan and Adrie offered to take us to Zaanse Schans to see all the windmills and how clogs are made! It turned out to be a really nice day! The old windmills were really interesting to see again and i cannot believe people actually wore some of the clogs i saw at the museum!! One of the best parts was the cheese factory we ran into that had a tasting with about 15 different kinds of cheese! Again the goat cheeses were the favorite for both brad and myself!
Windmills!
Afterwards we went on a drive to Volendam where you get the family photos dressed up in traditional Dutch wear! It’s such a cute little fishermans town, and we were all tempted to get some fried fish from a street vendor! YuM!
Fish sandwiches!
When we arrived back home, i shuffled through Jan and Adrie’s albums hoping to find some fun family photos, and look what i found….!!! THe most hilarious photos from a New Years….not positive of the year, maybe 94, with the theme..”crossdressing’ i suppose! 0o my family is awesome! 
My awesome cross-dressing family!
Before we knew it, it was time to go back to Amsterdam to pick up Chris, but not before a nice visit from Hyung and Sash! It was so nice to catch up with Hyung again and we arranged to meet up in Amsterdam yay!! And so we left …. sad to leave the fam but excited to see more fam…Chris!
