After leaving Leiden, we arrived in Baarle-Nassau. It is a town that is on the border of Belgium and has its own town named Baarle-Hertog. Below is a picture of the sign as you enter the town showing the respective flag next to each city name.
We stayed in a cottage while in Baarle-Nassau and this is the drive to get to it. It was in the woods and absolutely beautiful!
When we arrived, some of our family was waiting there to greet us and to meet Rachel. Aunt Ellis made Rachel this adorable, very dutch Build-A-Bear. She loves it!!! 
Below are some pictures of the cottage. It was so nice inside with a large kitchen and table, three bedrooms and lots of space for Rachel to play in the living room. Outside was a beautiful garden, a storage hut for bikes, a pond and gorgeous landscaping.
This is a view of the downtown area.
Here we are with my Dad (Rachel's Opa) where the two countries border. You can see the line signifying the separation. Here, they are in the Netherlands...
Crossing into Belgium...
Now they are in Belgium!
Rachel seemed extremely excited to have visited two countries in such a short time!
