About Me

I live in Tasmania with my husband of 40 years and have a daughter in Melbourne and a son in Launceston. My interests are quilting, theatre, reading, gardening, travel. I work as a chartered accountant.

The next day we woke in Dordrecht and were taken by bus to Klinderdijk to see the windmills - I also enjoyed their sculpture on the canal.














We then set sail for Rotterdam - what a huge port - it never seemed to end. Now these houses were quite amazing - and definitely had a lean to them! I can almost feel a quilt coming on!







Our next excursion took us to De Haag - I loved this pattern on the gates to the International Court building.












Then off to the Delft factory - I now know why the product is so expensive although I did indulge in a thimble. Everything is painstakingly handpainted so each are unique.
