First stop... Holland

For the next 5 days, we'll be exploring Holland... or as they call it here, Nederlands. On the evening of 5 June, we'll be flying off to Edinburgh.

5 days to see the whole country? Sempat ke?? Well... the plan was to visit Amsterdam (of course), Den Haag, Delft, Haarlem, Zaans Schans and kalau sempat, slot in Leiden and Alkmaar as well. A very ambitious jam packed itinerary, planned with the aid of the ever dependable DK Witness guidebook and Fodor's travel forum.

But along the way we made some changes... dropped Haarleem, and went to Volendam instead with Faz and her family. And tak sempat pun pergi Leiden and Alkmaar.

Too bad that we just missed the tulips season. So gambar postcards je lah...



Holland is famed for its windmills...



Dairy products... (kita semua kan kanak2 Dutch Lady? ;) )



And to produce all that yummy chocolate, cheese and milk, we need cows!
