Den Haag.. Madurodam

When our train reaches Den Haag Central, we went straight to ticketing counter to buy our tickets to Amsterdam since we will be leaving this place in a few hours.. There is a service charge of 0.50 Euros for every ticket sold when we buy over the counter.. crap.. we went to the Tourist Info after that to get some info n buy some souvenoirs.. after we found out how to go to the Mini Holland, Madurodam.. we went to wait for the tram.. while waiting i took some pics of course..

At the tram stop..

LL wanted to take some pic that shows she is at the Hague.. (Den Haag is the Dutch name for the Hague) so i took a photo of her with a construction sign with the word "Den Haag" on it.. haha

I read some where that almost every Dutch has a bicycle.. n they would cycle from their home to the public transport station such as bus or trams where they will park their bikes there..

As usual, we took the tram w/o stamping.. act blur.. no one to check.. haha the strippen card is cool, it can be used for public transport in Rotterdam, The Hague n Amsterdam.. the tram stop at Madurodam..

When we reached Madurodam, the ticketing counter person warned us beforehand that what we r gonna see inside is diff from wat we r gonna expect from the brochure becos its snowing recently n most buildings r covered with snow.. the rest felt like going then ok loh.. the entrance costs 12 Euro but we have a dicount card so in the end it costs 10.50Euro..n the lady at the counter said to compensate us, they would offer each of us a free drink in the cafeteria.. ok loh..
