Kinderdijke

John and I visited the Kinderdijke with his aunt, sister, brother-in-law, and their kids, Joost and Evelien. The Kinderdijke is a UN world heritage site. The windmills were used to remove water from the swampy land.  People still live in some of the windmills. 

These are some of the windmills along the canals:
