Talking a Walk Through Beautiful The Hague!

We dropped off the car this morning at Milou's house and enjoyed a little visit with Milou and Skyler!
Skyler has her very own desk now.....and proudly showed it to us! 

 Skyler immediately made a special drawing for me!  So sweet! 
 Momma Lou too got a new table....yes a new coffee table on wheels!  Wow you guys!






 It is Milou's day off so she & Skyler are going off to run some errands together..."Girls do that you know!"

 We enjoyed a cup of coffee with them and then we headed off down the road...it was our plan to get a good walk in this morning!  "Have a good day Ladies!" Both Skyler and Milou stood at the window and waved to us...so cute!  Big smiles and happy waves!


We took a leisure walk back to our studio apartment - going through the "The Hague Woods" and also another park called Duindigt - all so pretty!  In The Hague Woods there is the house that our Queen Beatrix (now Princess Beatrix again!)  lived in called "Het Loo" right in the center of this beautiful park!
Of course it is gated and very private but nevertheless she enjoyed The Hague and had her office downtown too.  Now of course her son King Willem Alexander and his wife Queen Maxima are on the Throne ~ 



 Such pretty scenes as we walk through this park....gorgeous huh?



 We had a wonderful walk - and the weather was pleasant!

Not hot but comfortable ~


 So many paths are in the park...for walkers, for people with dogs, for horses....and also bike lanes for the bikers ~

 Cute houses as we walk along the streets~


 Mickey Mouse?  Do you see him? 
 Cute!!! Do you see the Blue White & Red wooden shoes there?  How cute is that????!!!!!!!

 A Garden shed...next to the house.
 Adorable huh?  Yes what a darling house and backyard -  

Picture Perfect!




















 There's a car that I have driven a lot in the past...a Citroen 2 cv




 A "Real" Dutch Door....Nick pointed out to me!  Yes - how fitting!

  Wow - 1.5 hour walk and it was so nice!  We love the scenery on the outskirts of town!  We walked to our studio apartment which is also on the outskirts of the immediate town...sweet!
