Lazy Sunday

After a croissant breakfast at a near by restaurant, we took a taxi to Oude Lutherse Kerk-Old Lutheran Church.  We attended a service there in Dutch.  It was a lovely old church with a very small congregation.

Then we walked to the Bloenmarkt (Flower Market).  You could basically buy any kind of flower or bulb here along with all kinds of knick knacks.  Then we went to the NEMO Science Museum so we could go to the top of the museum for the view.  There is actually a road that goes underneath the museum too.  Of course there were tulips on display as well.

While mom rested I walked over to the Anne Frank House.  It is under renovation and tickets must be booked online head of time.  Besides I am not allowed to go there until Lauren and I come to Holland.  But I did want a picture.  This is where Anne Frank and 7 other Jews hid for 2 years in an area smaller than 1000 square feet.The church in the picture is Westerkerk which was built in 1631.  Rembrandt is buried inside but no one knows where for sure.  Also the chimes ring every 15 minutes and these are the church bells that Anne Frank writes about hearing.
