Breakfast in Hoorn


Continental breakfast courtesy of the hotel we were staying at in Hoorn. We always took a window seat, which turned out to be a good thing, since Marleen stopped by three times when she noticed us there. I took a picture of the breakfast that was served between 7 and 10 am for the guests of the hotel. Our tablecloth is actually a woven Turkish rug. Our choice of coffee or tea is served with a plate of cold cuts and cheese, a basket of bread and rolls, a soft-boiled egg, and a glass of orange juice, fresh squeezed it seemed. On our last day we find out that in the basket of bread is a delicious gingerbread tasting bread wrapped like a cracker, and we never had tried it before. I'd like to have that recipe.
