"Is this heaven?" she asks. Pretty much. This is Verkade & Jacques Kaas & Wijn (cheese and wine shop). It is amazing, and there are a hundred different cheese choices.

We had a very Oude (old world) Delft day on Friday. Our friend Deborah took us on a tour of the city center. We visited a bakery, an Indonesian market, the natural foods store, the Markt (square), the vegetable & fruit market, the cheese shop, and topped off our tour with the C1000 (think small Safeway). All of this adventuring was via the stroller loading up our bags along the way.

We are on the southeast corner of city center and most shops are accessible within a 5 to 10 minute walk. The streets are mainly brick. Most are so small that you are sure they must be bike and pedestrian paths until a car comes down the lane between the buildings and the canal. The square (markt) is closed to most cars.
