We were lucky enough to be in town during the Easter Holiday which means we have Saturday – Monday to explore. Since we have a car we decided to hit the road on Saturday. Knowing nothing, we flipped a coin which pointed us southwest to the historic city of The Hague. This is an old town which houses much of the Netherlands government. There is some beautiful architecture there. Here is one government building called the Binnenhof. Some of the buildings in tis complex are over 700 years old!
Of course Cheryl and I can only handle so much culture so it’s time for some food and beverages. We stumbled on a Saturday street market with all kinds of foods, jewelry and clothing. We just had to buy a couple zjoko kuzu. These are chocolate covered crème puffs on a stroopwafel. Delicious!

We finished the day with a wonderful dinner at “The Duchess.” All in all a terrific day exploring and learning the culture.
