Antwerp, Belgium to Den Haag (The Hague), Netherlands

The Hague, Netherlands


since we couldnt make it for d morning train anyway, we decided to leave in d afternoon. eve went to do her final shopping spree while i stayed home n chill.

we finally left around noon and had our final Belgian waffle while waiting for d train. we got off at Rotterdam as planned and stored our luggages in a big locker. after walking around for about 30 min, we only saw big tall buildings and a realy really big/loooong sea port! we got bored n decided to head to Kinderdijk, where we can see d most windmills in Netherlands! Kinderdijk is about 1hr away by bus and the bus doesnt run very often. we were set on heading there thou so we waited for d next bus, which was about half an hour.

the hour bus ride passes pretty quickly (especially when u dozed off!). there were some nice sceneries to Molenkade so it was cool. when we finally reached Kinderdijk, it was almost 6pm. most of d visitors are already leaving and the shops are all getting ready to close. we had a quick browse n coffee b4 heading to d windmills area.

it was freezing cold n bloody windy! but i still took sooooo many photos of the windmills! it was almost near sunset so d skyline was nice too! i cant really explain or describe d sight so here they are in photos.

we didnt really stay long cos we need to get to Den Haag b4 it gets too late. with d bus ride and train ride, it took us almost 2 hours to reach Den Haag. we took d tram as instructed by our host Yorien. as we got off d tram, still trying to figure which direction is d right direction, we heard "u are just on time ladies!". i was pretty happy she came to picked us up at d tram stop cos we would have gone d wrong way and we were real hungry by then! so she brought us to her home, which is a nice 2-storey apartment on d top floor of her block (only 3rd floor actually). we are to sleep on d top floor, which is kind of d attic/living room. we chatted over dinner with Yorien. she suggested us going to Keukenhof tomorrow (Sunday) as she can drop us off on her way to meet her friends. we decided to accept the free ride and head to bed pretty early.
