Rotterdam is a neat place. It has a unique balance of class, along with an industrial infrastructure. It kind of reminds me of Chicago. The weather wasn't so amazing the entire time: cold, drizzly, windy - but it was nice to have a weekend away from Brussels. We didn't really do much besides walk around and explore, but that was more than satisfactory for us. As per usual, we stopped at Pizza Hut to check out the menu - and were sadly disappointed. Very Americanized. We had "all you can eat" at the Japanese restaurant. The food was decent, but we had to go RIGHT when they opened - they have a reservations list that is filled well in advance. Our hotel, NH, was super nice and comfy. On the Sat. night after Den Haag - we ate out, got some beer and came back to watch some TV.
Den Haag - we didn't know what to expect. You hear about the place all of the time because of the international courts, so we expected a very opulent place. It was. The city was pretty relaxed, food was crazy expensive, and the shopping was even more expensive. We didn't buy much - just wandered around and took pictures. We ran into an outdoor sculpture art show (see pics).
The time has come for pictures:
9 pictures, mostly of Den Haag
