Suus and Dunya's citytrip : The Hague - part 4

Hey Mister, can I sit on your lap?

Wow... the Queen sure has a big.. eh.. Palace... Look how tiny we are, standing in front of it. We should show this pigture to Princess Snowflake and Prince Teddy. Maybe their slaves can build something similar.

 In front of the palace, next to the statue of william the silent, the girls found some more plants.. 'This isn't tasty at all!! And I'm hungry again!!'

Hello Queen Wilhelmina, do you happen to know a place nearby where we can get some lunch? The nice queen directed them to a hofje (which is a Dutch word for a courtyard with almshouses around it)

 Mjwhwmmm... excellent salad bar!
And ow.. the scenery is nice too

 And then it was time to go home because the two little pigs were very tired.
While they sat in the tram on their way back home, they had big smiles on their faces.
'That sure was a great day, Suus!'
'Yes it was, Dunya'

The End

Suus and Dunya's citytrip : The Hague - part 3

'That sure was a nice snack' sighed Dunya. Lets take a rest at the Prison gate.

They walked further along the Court Pound.
The guy you see in the back is Johan van Oldenbarneveld.

'Who is he?'.. 'Jee, I don't know..'

Well okay, let's go to the Lange Voorhout square. It says in the tourist guide that there are a lot of trees on it.

Hmmmmm!! This silvery thing looks like it's edible!!!!

The silvery thing turned out to be an art piece and not that edible at all.

Here you can see Dunya posing in front of art that was a pile of grass (with a statue)

This cleary is an artist who appreciates the important things in life.

'Dunya! I'm getting tired! Aren't we finished yet?'

'No Suus, we haven't seen Queen's Beatrix's hutch yet. I've heard she lives here.'

Where to go next? According to Suus' little touristguide there used to be a veggie garden on Plein ('the square'). Of course the girls had to check it out.

Unfortunately, there are only a lot of big buildings like the Department of Justice on Plein and a lot of bars. And it's too early to get a carrot beer. 

Lets go and see if we can get something to eat somewhere else.

Now they wander into the Binnenhof ('Inner Court'). This is where the Dutch Governement works. Maybe they have some leftovers for us?

Hello Mr. Balkenende ((former) Dutch Prime Minister), 

do you have some veggies for us?

Hmmm.. no answer...

Hey Suus, there is a fountain. Lets get something to drink.

Heehee.. it's a good thing we didn't bring Igor ;-)

Yum! These flowers look kinda tasty..

Suus and Dunya's citytrip: The Hague - Part 1

This is a little story me (Mieke) and my sister Janneke made a couple of years ago.
I thought it would be nice to share something from the 'days of Yore'...

Suus and Dunya visit the Hague in the Netherlands

Suus and Dunya were nibbling on some nice basil leaves.

'Hmm, it sure is sunny outside, shall we go sightseeing in The Hague?' asked Suus.

'That's a great idea!, I'm already wearing my sunglasses', replied Dunya.

So the girls went to the Tram Stop.

Suus was eagerly waiting for the tram to arrive

'Suus, hurry up the tram is coming!!'

They both climbed aboard, and travelled to the city centre of the beautiful city of The Hague.

When they got out at the city centre's train station, the two little pigs sat down on a bench.

'WOW!! Look at all those bikes!!!' Dunya yelled.

'Those Dutchies must be very environmentallerly friendly...;-)'

Look!!

They named a street after Princess Snowflake, I knew she was famous!
