We went to check out an art exhibition. Giant sculptures on the Lange Voorhout: Den Haag onder de Hemel. Very impressive! Here are a few of our favourites:
The giant man!
The giant head. Travis was very happy to point out the eyes and nose. Neither of them asked about the stick though(!?)
Grandpa, you didn't deliver this one properly!
The favourite!
Any guesses as to where these art works were made?
The rain had picked up by the time we reached the end so we raced inside for some coffee and banana cake.
Then we walked past Prince Willem van Oranje,
followed by a walk through the 'Binnenhof'. Dylan was really excited to hear there was a 'Ridderzaal' (Knight's hall). Here he is running to try and get inside. He wasn't interested in hearing that it was where the government meets. He just wanted to get in there and sword fight with the knights!
Picture is not the Ridderzaal, it's the old meeting spot... and is a much prettier building!
We were parked very close to the palace and the boys were very disappointed that the Queen wasn't home. They so wanted to go and visit. Oh well, Beatrice, maybe next time!?
