my husband and I visited Kinderdijk in July 2003, we went with a Dutch couple we had gotten to know really well through ICQ.
our visit to Kinderijk was wonderful, we loved seeing the windmills;they were magnificent!
there was only one negative experience, a Dutch cyclist came speeding through the path we were walking on, and he almost hit me. However, my Dutch friends scolded him harshly for his rudeness- I still don't know what they said to him, they shouted their admonishments to him in Dutch...
I was amazed at the size and beauty of the windmills and would like to visit Kinderijk again
