davidx's travel recommendations

We weren't particularly attracted here by the guidebooks but the entrance ticket for the Tile Museum, down on this site as a separate entry, covers both and, even though it only cost us old codgers €1 each, [double for 'real' people,] it seemed silly to miss it. Am I glad we didn't! This was the house of a wealthy businessman and is packed with great furniture, ceramics, objects of precous metals and paintings. The last weren't really to our taste but you can't win 'em all and generally it was a real treat.
