Yesterday we visited a rather famous place in the Netherlands "De Zaanse Schans". De Zaansche Schans, north of Amsterdam, packed with wooden windmills, barns, hourses and museums and built in the typically dutch woorden architectural style, relocated piece by piece since 1961.
Highlight for Marne? Visiting the AH-shop in de Zaanse Schans.
Supermarket chain Albert Heijn started life as a small grocery store. In 1887, Albert Heijn took over the store from his parents at the age of just 21. In this old grocery store, you can see the original furnishings and stock. The store shows how much shopping has changed in just over a century.
The museum shop is located in a listed building, a typical example of a simple local wooden construction from the 19th-century. It is a combination of two different buildings. The front part of the shop was originally located on Oostzijde in Zaandam. The rearmost part is a house that originates from Kerkbuurt in Westzaan
And a short visit to Marken as well, were we found this lovely fabric shop. Don't you love the tiles on the floor.

Ja, de Zaanse Schans is leuk, zelfs als je vlakbij woont blijft het boeiend om een rondje te lopen. En om de toeristen te bekijken! Het Zuiderzee museum is ook een aanrader!
Toeristisch maar leuk en folkloristisch dit stukje Nederland. Wat zullen jullie een lol hebben gehad met de British Bake Off!
