The Hague and Delft

Pictures from my trip to The Hague.  I stayed in Delft - a short 30 minute tram ride from The Hague and fell absolutely in love with the quiet village feel with canals and blossoming trees everywhere.  And there was sun!   Vermeer painted some of his most well-known paintings in Delft (The Girl with the Pearl Earing is in the Delft Museum).  Unfortunately all the shops were shut when I was had the chance to look around - pity because I think I could have spent quite some time sifting through the vintage goods in the shop below.  Thankfully day-light saving at the moment means that it's light at 4am and not dark again until 10pm, enough time to wander the streets camera in hand and enjoy the scenery.   

Hope you're all having a lovely weekend!
