A morning in Baarn.

Yesterday morning Jopie took me to the center of her town, Baarn. Lovely little flowershop!! It seems that I am not the only ones who likes gnomes. We had coffee at this cute little cafe and look at the size of the water glass. Hilarious!!!

What a lovely home!!!!

The last picture is of Jopie and DJ's house. Beautiful!!! The first two are of such a cute little house in Laren. Great details!!

End of 2nd day in holland.

We were in this stunningly fairy tale of a town called Laren today for their end of the school year Kermis or carnival. The weather was so nice that we sat out on the terrace and had a few great beers and a lively dinner. The lids went on the rides of course. The funniest one was the blow up balls with the kids inside. Crazy!!!
