Today we take the train to
Amersfoort to stay with Mr Jax’s cousin for a few days (over Christmas).
We have walked around 10,000
steps each of the four days we have been in Utrecht, almost 18,000 steps the
first day!
So, you can only imagine how
much we have seen of this beautiful city, the 4th largest in the Netherlands.
We have had brilliant blue
skies and sunshine, showers and heavy rain, and strong icy winds – but no snow!
This morning we have very
strong winds – playing havoc with the fountain outside our window - so much so, they have just turned it off!
Here are some photos taken around the city over the
past four days - you can click on the photos to see them a bit larger:

| The house of the first and only Dutch pope. |

| They breed them tough here! Kayaking on the canal |

| Canal with the Dom in the background (Utrecht's 'landmark') |
 |
| An interesting church spire towering over houses |

Looked so odd: sun lounges lined up in the park when it was about 5oC
- at least it was sunny! |
