Beyond the windmills are the cute houses that I like so much.

On one of my last days of winter break Nawael, Chelsea, and I went to Sasebo to go visit Huis Ten Bosch. The tickets are usually very expensive but Nawael received three tickets as a present and chose to take Chelsea and I to go with her! Huis Ten Bosch is a Holland themed theme park. The buildings are so pretty. I didn't feel like I was in Japan anymore beccause I felt like I was in Europe. There were attractions like a boat ride down the river, going inside to see how a windmill works, a teddy bear museum, a trick art museum, some small rides, 3D movies, shows, and there was even a parade. Only the parade was more for little kids. When we first arrived we ate lunch at the Chocolate House. The restaurant was also connected a chocolate shop. The chocolate shop had a huge chocolate fountain. I drank some hot chocolate with some almond cream in it! It was delicious. The almond cream tasted just like the almond butter that I put on toast at home. We went and had fun at many of the attractions after lunch. We went and rode the river boat 3 times! I liked the boat because there was this one area that I liked and got to see a little bit more of it. It was either a residential area or rental houses. It was separated from the park by the river and all the houses were so cute! Chelsea, Nawael, and I also had fun shopping for souvenirs. Nawael and Chelsea bought cheese. The cheese at Huis Ten Bosch is really good. At night we got to stay and see the pretty illuminations. Most of the park was lit up with Christmas lights. After dinner we headed home. The day was so much fun but really cold because Huis Ten Bosch is right by the sea. There were not many people at Huis Ten Bosch because of the weather so it was nice not to have to wait in line for anything. Here are some pictures that will show you more of what we did at Huis Ten Bosch.
