She, of course, had no trouble climbing the steps. And after my 5 weeks of eating and drinking to excess, I too, had no trouble. Yay!

The “new” church with construction beginning in the late 1300s and ending 100 years later. The hero of the Dutch people, Prince William of Orange, has a very impressive mausoleum inside.

We climbed the 271 steps to the top to get these views. That’s a Catholic Church in front, which was the most beautiful I have ever seen with its painted brick walls and ceiling inside.

We stopped in this shop and Joyce picked up some jewelry. I was tempted by this lamp, but the $2500 price tag convinced me I didn’t really need it, lol!

They still have craftsmen and women working away, but times have been tough recently with the younger generation not wanting fine pottery or wanting to pay for it. Tough to retain, much less find, workers who can do produce these individual masterpieces.

They did ceramics for gardens and archways as well as tiles for a while. This is a tile reproduction of Rembrandt’s famous Night Watch.

Saint Maria’s Catholic Church built from 1875-82 (just seven years!!) when it became safe for Catholics to build churches following the reformation.
