Delf, the Netherlands








My mom and I have been on the move so much this week that I've been too exhausted to blog at the end of each day, so here are some updates.

On wednesday we traveled 15 minutes outside of Rotterdam by train to the city of Delft. Home to Vermeer and Defltware and cute as a button! We made the mistake of starting the day off with a climb to the top of the New Church tower. Our legs were reallllly not happy with us after that. We went to the Vermeer museum that didn't have any Vermeer's, Mom ordered a giant cheezy pancake with strange tasting pastrami, and when we got lost looking for the Royal Delft Museum we asked a couple with a map for directions only to find out the woman is the director of the Westport library in CT who mom knew but had never met in person. Small world!

Delft was touristy but was really lovely and a great place to be on a beautiful day. Take a peak at the rest of the photos here on facebook or flickr
