Leiden

Lieden is close to where we live and is where we go to church. It is also a beautiful city and university town.
This bridge is close to where William van Orange returned to the city. The Spanish had occupied the city until Orange breached the dikes and flooded the city. The city is 6 feet under sea level and about 15 miles from the coast.

This is a nice place to eat on one of the canals.

For 2 or 3 euro you can get fresh cut flowers year round.

This is for Ruby (and Fox, Samantha and Maddie). Candy Shop.
This is a saw molen. The long building at the bottom is where long logs can be cut. It is located in a present day  lumber yard.
