venice in holland. a place that you know for years and yet never set your feet on the water village. you spot a chance through a friend who is going and grab the chance to drag him to go with you. he was reluctant, but he gave in anyway.
this place is a good two hour drive from where we are. you arrived, met up with your friends and stroll along the main pier hunting for boat to rent. it's peak season, almost no more boat available or they're already booked by others...
it's a little village surrounded by canal and without road. all connected by canal or bridge from island of land to another.
let alone the beautiful mansion with the lush green grass and manicured garden... lovely sight! some of the houses may not be luxury, but full of characters, unique by its own.
some are even rustic, but they are beautiful standalone houses on each island of land...
needless to say, it's a touristic spot, where you see some old dutch ladies in their traditional costumes making the crispy pancake for sales...
you continue to the village and finally succeeded with a boat rent for 3 hours. you were excited, and all five of you hopped on to the boat and a journey begins...
more on the boat ride later..
