Zwolle, The Netherlands, is a small, Dutch city(146,000 pop.) with a very good museum(Fundatie) and…read morean all-right one(Stedelijk). Now, the restaurants in the evening in Zwolle are not cheap, however, I found one that was worth the money. The Public at Blijkmart 23 (across the street from the Fundatie Museum) had friendly waiters & watresses. I had Sate which had very good meat and an excellent peanut sauce. Along with a glass of wine I paid €23 total.

A massive mall nearly attached to the Central Station in Utrecht, Netherlands. It's a gateway to…read morethe city of Utrecht from the station. Being from The United States, I must admit it is quite an impressive mall. I used to have minor panic attacks walking through this to get to Utrecht Center City with all the people. Now that the Corona measures are in place, it's a lot more tamed. The parking garage is high-end. Bathrooms are attended and it has the largest bicycle parking facility in The Netherlands. It's more than a "mall" but a destination. Still generally the same stores you find in center cities all over Holland, but more of a selection. Everything you need and very few closed locations. Worth a visit. I go here when the weather is terrible outside to get some steps too! Gezellig!

Headed into town? This is a GREAT spot! If you take the rail in and keep your recipe, parking is…read morecheap ALL day. There are two lots, one right next to the train (Zeeburg I) and another across the street (Zeeburg II). The rate only applies if you are going into the city. The ride into town is short, so even if you're standing it won't be bad. Ample parking (I was in lot 2). There is no staff at lot 2 and at lot 1 the staff won't be there after hours. But there are kiosks that will display in English. How do you get the great rate and avoid paying 24 euro's for the day? At the kiosk get a P+R GVB card. You have to buy it within 1 hour of parking. Before you get on the train use that same card to get back to the lot. This is very important. I bought another "all day" card for the trams in the city. If I had used that card to get back to my car I wouldn't have received the lower rate. The kiosk will check to your last "check-in", which should be in the city. If you make a stop on your way back to your car outside of the city, you won't get the rate. Pay within 1 hour of returning It can be a little complicated, but if you follow the directions above you won't pay more than 8 euro's for the day, maybe less!

Open, clean & nice sized station. There is quite a bit of graffiti. One thing that bothered my…read moredaughter the most was seeing "Hitler" written on the doors of the elevators. Although, I did state that "Trump" could quickly be put on the opposite side. When you go out to the bus area, the seats to wait, are all tagged & have graffiti. Other than that, it was very clean. You can walk across the bike/walking path & get a snack or drink if needed. All a very short walking distance from the hospital, or city center to go shopping in. Beautifully surrounded by trees, & a lovely park setting. It was quite peaceful. So, don't let the graffiti hold you back, this is a clean & nicely kept station. My main issue wasn't with the station, but the ignorant woman on her phone, who plopped herself down in the handicapped/elderly/pregnant seating area, who wasn't any of these!!! So, the four stars is for the mass amount of graffiti. I know as soon as it's cleaned, it's put up again, because, like the woman mentioned, ignorant people are all over.
