Ahhh...a weekend in Holland

Texas is a big state, and I am from the middle of it. That means I can drive four hours in any direction and I will still be in Texas. Here, after four hours of driving, I can be in Holland! 

Recently I went to the Keukenhof Gardens near Lisse in the Netherlands.  The Gardens are only open for about two months, and it's almost the end of the season. You wouldn't know it by looking at the flowers, though:

I was in Amsterdam, too, but not for nearly enough time. I want to go back! 

I love the canals!

Next time I will go to the Anne Frank house...this is the church whose bells Anne could hear from her hiding place.

More canals, more bicycles
