Delft

     My girlfriend Lena and two good friends, Marc and Belén, decided to take a trip to see Delft in south Holland near Rotterdam, where all the blue and white ceramics (Delft Blue) come from. It’s a pretty typically Dutch city, with the standard architecture and canals… and leaning buildings, particularly one church who’s tower leans so severely I could easily imagine it toppling over. We went to the Stadelijk Museum Het Prinsenhof, home of Willem van Oranje, where he was shot and killed. The bullet holes still remain in the wall. There’s also various artwork and paintings. Otherwise, we meandered through the city, had some lunch, and later some beers before heading back to Amsterdam.
