How many cities have a university and a forest within their bounds? Leiden must be one of the few. Eager to see what summer is like, we set out for a long walk around Leiden Woods (Leidse Hout or Leidsehout), and in our jet-lagged state, it was really like we'd stepped into The Secret Garden or other such world.
We visited the woods in 2007 but for some reason, I came without my camera and as a result, there are no photos. That visit was remarkable above all because we spotted, not one or two but three huge peacocks all the way over in Holland. This time, on the way, we saw lotuses!
