Beach Day!

Sadly, this is our last week here in beautiful Amsterdam. 
Over our morning coffee, Wendy and I discussed that there are still so many places we still want to visit and experience!  So after much debate, we decided today we wanted to see the North Sea (and also get out of the city on a warm sunny day!)  After a quick bike ride to Central Station, we bought 2 round trip tickets to the coastal town of Zandvoort.

Central Station Amsterdam
Love the trains! We arrived in Zandvoort after a peaceful and scenic 30 minute ride- no stress or traffic!

Gorgeous sunny skies over the North Sea



Had to get our toes in the sand! (oops misspelled Zandvoort!) Ha!!


The beaches in Holland are quiet and calm. The sand is smooth, cool and soft to walk on. Alot like the gulf coast, just not as white.


No airplanes flying overhead with banners advertising early bird specials. The Dutch just bring the food to you!

 

The water was bit too cold to swim, but still great to walk in along the shore.


Our feet in the North Sea!


Enjoying another fabulous Sunday in the Netherlands!
