Kinderdijk / Euromast

A gorgeous Saturday forced us out of our apartments and we headed towards Kinderdijk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinderdijk). After our arrival we also got involved in some dutch tradition: the arrival of Sinta Klaas (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinterklaas and http://www.sinterklaasintocht.info/kaart/kinderdijk.html). Later that day the Euromast (http://www.euromast.nl/en/) in Rotterdam delivered lovely views over the inner part of the harbour.



The windmills were used to drain the polders in former days

The only thing changed is the way the Archimedean Screw is powered
