Maastrict

East bank of  Maastricht

typical pavement cafe in old quarter
Next day we took the bus into Maastrict from the top of the road, a bus every 15mins! Its the oldest town in the Netherlands having been established by the Romans on the banks of the Maas. We bought a walking tour leaflet and wandered round the interesting old buildings many of which are expensive designer shops now! Also many pavement cafes and bars and plenty of well off people to fill them. Rosemary treated herself to her first English newspaper from the station and we bought a portion of very cheesey pasta salad to have back on site.
