Netherlands

I went to the Netherlands in Sep 2013 on business trips. I never been Europe before. This was my first experience to travel for 12 hours alone on the flight. My longest hours on plane was with hubby 12 years ago to Canada. It was 24 hours flight.

I self photo taking myself at Amsterdam Centraal. You can see that there were many pigeons at my back.
I took boat ride along the canal. Something similar as Singapore Boat Quay, but their canal is wider.


In front of Amsterdam Centraal subway station.
The meal on KLM flight.In my opinion, the food was yummy, the portion was not big but enough for me.
On my first day, I visited Windmill at Kinderdijk because our office was located there. I stayed at the hotel nearby the windmill. This was the photo I took along the side road.
The entrance of windmill.

I met a student from China and we took turn to take photo for ourselves.

I enjoyed my Europe trip very much. It was a 8 days trip. The 12 hours flight is still bearable. I found the subway is still very easy to follow. Some of my colleagues complained that they missed the train because the verbal information given at the station is in Dutch. As long as, you note the direction showed on the TV at the platform, you will not get lost.

All the pictures taken from iphone5 without editing. I could not bring my DSLR because I was travelling solo with office laptop.
