We are in Leiden, where the Mission office is until tomorrow when we will get our car and head to Zeist. The Van der Puts, the local couple who serve in the office and Mission presidency were so kind and took us to a Dutch ward in Leiden, then to their home in Zoetermeer for lunch. We saw new sights and met new friends! It was wonderful and we hope to see some of them during our service in Zeist.
We saw The Hague, Netherlands temple. They are just now doing all the ground planting. It will be beautiful when done.
The chapel in Zoetermeer. It is the largest in the Netherlands and has this cool covered bike rack! We found out there is an expat English speaking ward here. (we will not be attending it :). We have downloaded an app to help us learn Dutch. Pray for us!
It was a perfect sunny day and downtown Leiden was crowded with people enjoying it! The canals had many boats putting up and down.....the people just relaxing, snacking and hanging out on the canals!
We are excited to meet the people of Zeist! (and we definitely need bicycles!).
So you can bike in a skirt:
