Finally I have come back from Utrecht! It was fantastic, I had a great time and took a bunch of pictures. They're not the professional quality I would like but hopefully you will see a little bit of Utrecht through my eyes.
Everyone there seems to cycle rather than drive, I was almost run over on the cycle paths... This was the parking outside our hotel.
This is one of the only places I've ever gone where I had to keep an eye on the path to make sure I didn't miss anything! Miffy graffiti included!
And of course no trip to Utrecht would be complete without a visit to the dick bruna huis. The home of the late inventor of Miffy/Nijntje!

Golden Miffy!
They made a maze/artwork spanning two floors, to me no matter how you looked at it, it was an optical illusion.
The cast of the Miffy movie!

This is the narnia wardrobe you had to go through to reach the toilets... It was an installation art piece called pee-pee in the forest, the corner of the room on the other side had pictures of little red riding hood in a forest.
Then there were mini toy displays.

It was all a bit surreal...
I'm going to save the last of the photos for tomorrows post, among them are views from the tallest clock tower in the Nederlands!
One last thing.
