The Behijnhof for women
The castle
We met friend Sofie and Peter
By the statue commemorating the death during the inquisition of many opposed to the king. They were marched out in their nightgowns with noises around their necks.
A plaque of a boat for well to do people
Mick and Sofie were excellent tour guides and it was an enjoyable evening. Thank you!
We went back to their home , did the dishes and went to bed.
