Honestly, it's a rare windmill

thoughts of Netherland conjour windmills, tulips, dutch pancakes. While the latter two were easy to find immediately in Amsterdam - windmills were the Sunday afternoon hunt. Armed with our bike map, Liam led us down many streets (including one where I almost bailed on my bike because it got stuck in a tram rail...) and finally just as we crossed a bridge was one of the two windmills in Amsterdam. I was very happy as it clearly looked authentic if not a little run-down.

I understand that somewhere in Holland there are lots of the new and modern wind mills meant for gathering energy. I am sorry to hear that the old style kind is harder to find.
