Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: Castles and Windmills

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2011/02/castles-and-windmills.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Sunday, February 20, 2011. So, I've been here for more than a month and no one has asked me about the windmills and castles. They're out there for sure. Staying close to home, I went to Wijk Bij Duurstede which is only about 20 minutes outside of Utrecht. There's a cute town square and because it was Saturday, the town was busy and crowded. Having a decent weather day certainly helped. Sunday, February 20, 2011. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Visit my Website at:.

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: Antwerp, Belgium

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2011/01/antwerp-belgium.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Sunday, January 30, 2011. The Cathedral of our Lady - Antwerp, BE. Today we ventured to Antwerp, Belgium. That’s right we crossed the border into another country. Way back when, that might have been a big deal. Today, we didn’t even see a ‘Welcome to Belgium’ sign. Of course, we could have missed it since we don’t speak dutch or french! The trip was easy and less than an hour and a half from Utrecht. The Cathedral at night. Sunday, January 30, 2011. Visit my Website at:.

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: The Binnenhof

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2011/01/binnenhof.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Tuesday, January 25, 2011. The Binnenhof (Dutch, literally "inner court"), is a complex of buildings in The Hague. It has been the location of meetings of the Staten-Generaal, the Dutch parliament, since 1446, and has been the centre of Dutch politics for many centuries. Tuesday, January 25, 2011.

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: Bicycles, Bicycles Everywhere

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2011/01/bicycles-bicycles-everywhere.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Thursday, January 13, 2011. Bicycles, Bicycles Everywhere. Thirty percent of the Dutch population travel by bicycle. This is astounding since only 45 percent travel by car. We’ve been thinking about getting a couple of bikes to get around town. There are plenty of places to park your bike and it’s easier (and cheaper) than parking your car. But we fear it’s the equivalent of biking on the interstate in bumper to bumper traffic at 70 mph!

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: The Green Door

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2010/11/green-door.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Sunday, November 28, 2010. I don't know what happened. All of a sudden it's post Thanksgiving and I haven't posted here since September? Well, I found my way back to some old Urbex stomping grounds and it was like I was there for the first time all over again. I was like a kid in a candy store. Sunday, November 28, 2010.

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Saturday, February 12, 2011. So How Long Does It Take To Build A Cathedral? St Bavo, Ghent, Belgium. On the way home from Bruges, we stopped in the town of Gent (Ghent), Belgium. We decided to go into Saint Bavo. Cathedral (pictured above). This cathedral was built in various stages with additions over the centuries. Evidence of the wooden beginnings of the structure are evident in the crypt and date back to the year 942!

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: Venice of the North

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2011/02/venice-of-north.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Saturday, February 12, 2011. Venice of the North. Well, I'm falling behind a bit. Last weekend was our first 'sleepover' in the city of Bruges, Belgium. Known as the the Venice of the North, Bruges is the best preserved medieval city in all of Europe. History of Bruges dates back to the 4th century but most of it's current architecture dates from the time it became a merchant trade town in the 12-15th centuries. That's right, it's current architecture! Waffles with your fa...

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: Changing Seasons at North Point

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2010/09/changing-seasons-at-north-point.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Saturday, September 11, 2010. Changing Seasons at North Point. Now that we are in mid-September, you can feel the change in the weather and a change of seasons is upon us. The weather is nice but certainly cooler and the effect it has on Lake Michigan at North Point is certainly noticeable. Whereas the lake can be perfectly calm in summer, the lake turns turbulent this time of year creating the opportunity for some dramatic images. Saturday, September 11, 2010.

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel: Everything . . . It's What's For Dinner

http://mydailywanderings.blogspot.com/2011/01/everything-its-whats-for-dinner.html

Daily Wanderings by Bob Israel. Friday, January 28, 2011. Everything . . . It's What's For Dinner. Dinner at Blauw in Utrecht, NL. Tonight we had dinner at Blauw. We gathered that they all ordered rice plates, an assortment of small plates. So we decided to order two rice plates, one with meat and the other with fish. Well, they brought some plates, then some more, then even more! So many flavors and many we hadn’t had before. We just about finished everything! Friday, January 28, 2011. Gouda and Den Haag.
