Signs - Giethoorn

Going through photos from earlier travels I came across these fabulous signs taken in a restaurant in Giethoorn, during our trip in February 2015, when we visited our daughter who lived in Amsterdam then.
This "Venice of the Netherlands" is a mostly car-free village about 120km north east of Amsterdam, known for their boat waterways, foot and bicycle paths and old thatched roof houses, with a population of about 2600 people.

  9. Dearest Sami,
    Lucky you for having visited Giethoorn in The Netherlands.
    My late aunt came from Giethoorn.
    Great signs captured from their restaurant.
    Hugs,

  11. You found some awesome signs. I especially like the ones with coffee, since I'm not a wine drinker.

    1. Thanks Elizabeth. I'm neither a wine, nor a coffee drinker, although I might drink a glass of wine maybe 2 or 3 times a year, but no coffee at all.
