PhotoHunt #6 - Hat

This week's PhotoHunt theme is hat(s). When we visited The Netherlands last summer, we went to a small fishing village called Volendam. It's a touristy place with many shops selling souvenirs and such. There are also a couple of places where one can have their photo taken wearing a traditional Dutch costume. On my daughter is a Dutch cap or Dutch bonnet. This is usually made of white cotton or lace. It is sometimes characterized by triangular flaps or wings that turn up on either side.

My Beautiful Dutch Kids

When we went to the northern part of The Netherlands, we visited a small fishing town called Volendam. It is a typical tourist spot by the water, beautiful and quaint. This is also where all tourists come to have their photos taken wearing the traditional Dutch costume. We all dressed up complete with wooden clogs and had our family photo taken wearing the costumes. Tyler enjoyed dressing up, he even wanted to bring home his costume. I recommend this photo op, the prices are reasonable and it is fun.
