The Hague, Netherlands
From the 13th until the 14th of September 1999, I was in The Hague sharing a Hotel with a very good friend of mine, David.
We stayed at the Steigenberger Kurhaus Hotel. We took a cue from the hundreds of Japanese tourists and posed in front of the hotel. The difference, of course, was that we were actually staying there.
Here's the view from our room.
Here's a picture of the casino that is apparently quite famous (we didn't get time to go inside).
Here's the hotel from the beach.
And lastly, here's the view looking out towards the North Sea. The weather wasn't that great when I was there, but David assures me that the day before I arrived, the beach was sunny, warm, and packed with people.
