Day 29: Amsterdam to Leeghwater and backThu Aug 4, 2016

After arriving in Amsterdam, we hit the coaches for an excursion to the Leeghwater region of the Netherlands. Leeghwater is an example of rural Dutch culture. We explored this historic area, taking in lush fields dotted with dairy cows, numerous restored windmills and charming wooden farmhouses.
