Closed…you mean everything?

Something you need to know about the Netherlands is that just about everything is closed on Sunday, except for some of the bigger cities.


We needed food for Sunday night’s dinner. The time 5:40 PM, what time do the stores close on Saturdays? 6:00 P.M. Uh Oh

Jump in the car, drive like mad men….ok I wasn’t driving….only one person can
drive at a time…with less than 15 minutes to spare…….We got pasta and
meat sauce, in my case is was fake meat.


We managed to finish our shopping in record time.


It is very quiet around here on Sundays.
