Even More Vacation Photos

Here they are! I was finally able to reformat some more wonderful picture

memories from my trip. Hubby got snap happy and took 4GB of pictures throughout the trip, but I think this is all that I'm going to tackle for a looong time.

I barely knit on the trip, but here I am trying to work on a tank top. To date, I am still on the same back piece and have made no progress whatsoever. I also did not really see any yarn shops (not that I was

actively looking) to my surprise. However, when we were in Hanover, a teeny town, I stumbled across 3! The stores were somewhat disappointed with many synthetic yarns and small selections of real wool.

THE NETHERLANDS - (1) An ostentatious castle with a moat in Haarzuilens, the Kasteel de Haar; (2) another view of the Kasteel de Haar; (3) Hey, why buy pot when you can grow your own from a Cannabis Kit from your flower shop!; (4) Sampling yummy yummy cheese at a divine cheese shop in Alkmaar, where they still trade cheese in the old way; (5) An exhibit wall from the Anne Frank House.

BELGIUM - (1) I loved mussels in Brussels! I had them everyday! I especially like the country style method and the ones in white wine. Yum!; (2) We rented a bike and rode around this cute little town of Bruge. This tower is part of the old city wall; (3) This old lady was asking for some spare change. Of course, I indulged this cutie pie.
