It is a very smal village! But very nice!<br /><br />The name Stroet comes from the name "stroet" which means swampy in Oudfries, with a first mention in 1478. A water mill stood at the west end of Dirkshorn but belonged to the Stroet in 1637 (the corn mill was at St.Maarten). Stroet is a real ribbon village that runs from the west end of Dirkshorn to the direction of Sint Maarten. The village has a number of large bulb growers and there is a large orchid nursery.<br />Do you have the streetview of Google in your computer?<br />You can see the whole Netherlands!<br />Greetings!<br /><br />Ellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02530446709948735048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-25576982560171959602018-06-04T14:56:56.058-04:002018-06-04T14:56:56.058-04:00I'm going to miss the tulips when this series ...I'm going to miss the tulips when this series is over!Normahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12685538277690762655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2437925806350573745.post-21660591529918026292018-06-04T14:12:18.387-04:002018-06-04T14:12:18.387-04:00Seems if you were going to Canada...this would be ...Seems if you were going to Canada...this would be the time to go.
