Nice, Marie It looks beautiful and I like the little gardens bordering the canal.

I had a girlfriend in The Hague some 15-20 years ago and I would visit her regularly, several times a year, so.. I've spent some time in Netherlands, also Amsterdam. Something which is a little weird is that since it's a flat country, you don't see much landscape beyond the street you're standing in. Coming from a hilly country, it's a thing I immediately noticed.

That aside, I really like Netherlands, especially Amsterdam and the snack foods, particularly french fries with satay sauce and mayonnaise. There's also a sandwich spread I miss which has been hard to identify, but we bought it at supermarkets. It seemed like ground meat mixed with spices so it was kinda orange in colour? And we got it in clear plastic containers. There's nothing quite like it here, so it stands out in my memory
