Holland, Belgium, Switzerland 1

For the two weeks of spring vacation this year we decided to visit the countries of Holland & Belgium. We also were invited for a long weekend to see our friends in Switzerland. We met our friends that we lived next at Fort Leonard Wood in 2001. During the trip we actually went into seven countries total (Holland, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, France, Switzerland & Liechtenstein)- including five of these in one long day of driving! In America you can drive for an entire day inside one state! Enjoy.

Holland is known for what else - Windmills, Tulips, Wooden shoes, bicycles and Amsterdam. Well that's exactly what we found.

Taking a break in a field of flowers, while someone else takes over 100 photos in the beautiful gardens of Keukenhof.

Amsterdam canal boat cruise. Here is a view of a canal with seven bridges in a row that can all be seen at once.

So you ride your bike into the town of Haarlem no big deal...it's remembering where you parked it at the end of the day that's hard.

Ian got to visit the Airborne Museum in Arnhem. This hotel was the HQ for the British First Airborne Division during the battle for "The Bridge Too Far."
