De Bijenkorf aka “The Beehive”

Here is the biggest department store in Holland.  It is the size of approximately 3 Nordstrom’s, or 1/2 the size of a Harrod’s.  Inside, Christmas decorations are in full swing, Black Peter’s scaling the walls and all.  They have the highest quality goods and brands, making it an upscale and elegant experience.  The escapade wouldn’t be complete without a trip to the wonderful gourmet restaurant on the 6th floor!  We didn’t eat there, but you bet your ass we had the free espresso samples from the machine that costs 5,000 Euros.
