hello Riet,
This looks like I have stepped right into a postcard. Yes, I love the beautiful builings and their wonderful rooflines and store fronts. Such wide streets too.

Wow what beautiful photos and sights to take pictures of. I think they are better than postcards, since we know who took them. Blessings

Hello Riet,
The photos of the city remind me of a fairy tale book cover. So charming. I just love it.

Hoi Riet,

Genieten van Delft. Ik was van plan om van het weekend te gaan, maar uiteindelijk heb ik toch voor de markt in Rotterdam gekozen! Een fijn weekend! Lieve groet, Madelief
