April, 2015 - DEN HAAG (THE HAGUE), HOLLAND #1


Den Haag is the capital of Holland and a center for many international institutions, including the Peace Palace.  We would highly recommend a visit.

Fountains and pumps are everywhere.  Water is not very far from the surface here.








































Flowers and flags.
