Parkin's in Netherlands day 3





Day 3 we headed to Zans Schans to see some of the old 16th century windmills now turned into museums. We saw one windmill pressing peanuts and making peanut oil. The best was the wooden shoe musem and we got the girls their own pair of wooden shoes. Well Kaitlan threw a tantrum over getting the size that fit her verses the one she thought was the prettiest and ended up with 2 pairs that she hardly even plays with now. At least they were only 15 Euro. I learned once again that I am extremly claustrophobic in crowds and can think of nothing but fleeing! We also paid a whole lot of money for a single crepe like pancake for lunch with bacon or ham on it. The Dutch do bacon why can't the Germans? The day would have been better had it not been so rainy and cold but still scenic none the less.
