Kröller-Müller Museum

There's supposedly 400 bikes at each entrance of the park for visitors to use. I love the Netherlands.

KJ and I at the entrance. Yes, it's a little rainy, but that didn't stop us. It cleared up later.

KP telling us about the Rodin sculpture, Femme accroupie 1882.

World famous sculpture gardens.


We actually made it into the museum at 4:40 after enjoying the sculpture garden all afternoon, but then they told us the museum closed at 5. So frustrating seeing all the masterpieces in 20 minutes. I guess I'll have to go back one day.

It was nice to get out of the city today with my friends KJ and KP. We took a little trip to the Kröller-Müller Museum located about an hour outside Amsterdam. It was so luxurious to ride in a car since I've been riding a lot of public transportation the last month. Can't believe I'm saying that, but it's true. I'll definitely look at driving in a different way when I get back. That's a whole other post. The museum is in the midst of unspoiled natural surroundings and houses a magnificent a cool collection of art, architecture and nature. Known for the extensive collection of works by Vincent van Gogh and the world famous sculpture garden. Enjoy!
