We're currently on a waterbus on our way back from Kinderdijk, which is a section of Holland known for windmills. Kinderdijk is accessible by boat from Rotterdam. Van Gogh painted both windmills and wheat fields, the latter being much more common motif in his work. Not only did we visit the windmills that were built around 1738, but we also gave " ice skating" on the nearby frozen river a go. We decided that the 25-75 kilometer ice skating competition held when weather permits in Kinderdijk may not quite be for us!
