In the bus that brought us back from Keukenhof to Amsterdam, I had the chance to take a rather successful photo despite the difficult conditions. Usually, photos from a bus are missed, and I don't take my camera out there.
Here, we discover a glimpse of the rich Dutch plain and the canals that criss-cross it.

Dans le bus qui nous ramenait de Keukenhof à Amsterdam, j'ai eu la chance de prendre une photo assez réussie malgré les conditions difficiles de prise. Habituellement, les photos en bus sont ratées, et je n'y sors pas mon appareil photo.
On y découvre un aperçu de la riche plaine hollandaise et des canaux qui la sillonnent.

I am always amazed at the Tulip fields in Holland. The vivid display of colour these stunning flowers display is simply a joy to watch, I had to take this shot. Looking back through my catalogue I came across this capture from a few years ago, reminding me of the freedom and travel, and looking forward to seeing it again soon.
Streefkerk is a town in the Dutch province of South Holland. It is a part of the municipality of Molenlanden, and lies on the southside of the river Lek, about 20 kilometres east of Rotterdam.
In 2004, the town of Streefkerk had 2600 inhabitants. The built-up area of the town was 0.37 km², and contained 628 residences. The statistical area "Streefkerk", which also can include the surrounding countryside, has a population of around 2,600.
Streefkerk was a separate municipality until 1986, when it became part of Liesveld. The latter has been part of Molenwaard since 2013.
Sint Nicholaskerk is the most seen and at the same time overlooked church in Amsterdam as well as being one its most recent constructions, no one can miss this iconic structure upon arrival to the city walking from Centraal Station your eye is immediately drawn to it at 58 m in height it towers over the city skyline.
This Roman Catholic Church was designed by Architect Adrianus Bleijs and is a nod to the past combining elements of neo-Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles, completed in 1887 it was made a minor Basilica in 2012.
The church is dedicated to the 4th century charitable patron saint of children that became our Santa Claus as well as the patron saint of sailors and prostitutes, another winning combination.
In the Netherlands Santa Claus is known as Sinterklaas and a feast has been celebrated for over 700 years in his name and adopted in the early part of 20th century the tradition of leaving small gifts in children’s shoes was practiced on Dec 6th which has evolved now to become a Dec 5th evening tradition of gathering of family and friends to exchange gifts and laughter.
While Dutch Sinterklaas celebrations are mainly for the children its adult component is an annual grievance poem written to the recipient that must rhyme and be read out loud by the subject at the evening party all in good fun but beware you may get as good as you give.

Open air museum of Zaanse Schans, near Zaandam, Netherlands. Quite an overphotographed spot, I thought I'd give it a try, there's not much artificial light after dusk, I even lost a little lighting that was present in the brighter version which was taken a few minutes earlier, I'll definitely go back to the Netherlands one day, but not to this spot.
