After 16 years of living here in the Netherlands, guess what! We found another best-kept secret of this country, this time through our housemaster, Mark, here where we live in our senior-living community.
It's called the Oude Ambachten & Speelgoed Museum (Old Crafts & Toys Museum), located in Terschuur, NL, located 68 km/42 miles northeast of us.
We immediately knew it would be a photographer's paradise, and it was, as you can see from our visit this past Saturday, February 7!

Just strap on your seatbelt and let the photos do the talking:
Most of the photos I'm showing are more or less in theme groupings.
Just use your imagination!
This is Astrid's video. Don't you love it!!!
The top photo is of miniatures; the bottom is life-sized.
All 4 of these were miniatures, less than a foot tall.
Talk about being short of eyes (one of my favorite Dutch expressions)!
This isn't even the half of it, but you surely get the gist.
So, a big shout-out to another best-kept secret here in the Netherlands. If you're ever in the area and need a good photo-op or a WOW-experience, we highly recommend it.
Wat staat daar véél te bewonderen en heel vé'l herkenbaar.
ReplyDeleteJullie hadden zeker ogen te kort en genoten thuis nog van de foto`s en de film ga ik zo bekijken.
There's so much to admire there, and so much to recognize.
You must have been amazed, and you enjoyed the photos at home, and I'm going to watch the film soon.
Fil is geweldig van die treintjes achter glas
ReplyDeleteA miniature wonder. Dusting must be tough. Well worth the visit, for sure.
ReplyDeleteWow is right! Someone has been collecting for a while. I see those ceramic bottles! Can’t remember what the drink is called …
ReplyDeleteI wanna go play!
