We are here!! It's so wonderful to be in Holland.. after 24 hours in the plane, we were warmly welcomed at Amsterdam airport by Femke & Rudy Broeren-Poldner. It's been 7 years since Shirin has seen these friends that she made during her Bahaí youth year of service with Artworks in Perth WA. Femke & Rudy live in the city of Utrecht, a 30 min drive from the capital. We wasted no time at all, heading to the centre of town. Shirin was like a broken record continually repeating "So pretty!" as you can see for yourself from these pics..

Rudy tells us that everyone in Holland owns a bike.

Cooking up a storm - Dutch style!
Enjoying Boerenkool (boo-ren-kol) a traditional Dutch meal of smoked sausage, mashed potatoe with farmer's cabbage & bacon, served with sweet apple sauce and cinnamon. YUM!
Beautiful sunrise view from Femke & Rudy's apartment.
