From the Six haven in Amsterdam we traveled right through Amsterdam to the "Haarlemmer meer ring vaart" The canal that surrounds the "Haarlemer meer polder" one of the first polders to be dried up in Holland. It is more striking here than anywhere else we have traveled that the land is many feet lower than the water. Also what is striking here is the diversity in Holland of industry, recreation, travel, and agriculture. All very intense, and within a stone's through from each other.
A good example is Schiphol airport on our starboard side,( we could see the control tower and the landings strips) and hundreds of horses on our port side.
