Day 58: Scheveningen, Part 2

On Saturday evening I went to Scheveningen. This is the big beach near The Hague. Usually it can be quite busy, but since it was the evening, a little chilly, and a little drizzly, it was quite abandoned. I went with some friends and we hung out at a bar for most of the evening. Then when the bar closed we went down to the beach. The beach at night, depsite the temperature, is really nice. The wind blowing, the waves crashing against the beach, the lights of huge cargo ships anchored out at sea, the night sky above... it really makes for what I thought was a very peaceful experience. It was nice to sit out on the beach just relaxing and enjoying the surroundings.
