Recently I promised more photos from den Bosch, et voila. I (and work) treated me to a week of intensive Dutch at a school just south of the city, which ended on the weekend of Carnaval. Den Bosch is one of the two main provincial capitals in which I’ve always heard they take the whole Carnaval thing seriously. Above is the Saturday car parade with Den Bosch Centraal train station in the background: frogs, the red – white – yellow, jackets (usually black) with many patches, and general festivity are the theme. Below, more from Saturday and Sunday.
It’s night on two years since I last shared views from Den Bosch with you, but having recently spent a weekend staying there, these are the first of more to come.
