A brick side street and a biker headed toward the North side of the cathedral. A small shop is already lit and the holiday decorations are still up for a bit longer.

Pale blue dawn and streetlights illuminate the narrow cobblestone street. Plants rise from the houses on either side. A small cat walks toward the camera in the distance.

A blurry student ride his bike down the red bike lane at the entrance to a street with overhang, decorations reflecting in the wet cobblestones. To each side are shops and houses built in the 1700s to 1800s.

People waiting at bus stops. The snow is falling in the early morning. There’s some ice on the road that reflects the street lights and decorations.

A small group of people walks past the former vleeshal, which of the old Central meat market on the main Square. It’s an ornate building and if you look carefully, you can see that the capitals are heads of different animals they sold.

It was a very misty morning for the Saturday market on the main Square. In the background, you can see the statue of Laurens Coster who some believe invented movable type before Gutenberg.

This is a photograph of the Friday organic market. The lady on the bike is about to pass the mushroom selling lady on the left who seems to have an in exhaustible supply of mushrooms year-round. My favorite vegan Sikh food seller is further down on the left.

Sweet school children ride their bikes underneath the large lit sign that says Haarlem on the southern edge of the centrum. This will be the southern motion limit of the Christmas market that will run until Sunday last year. We had the largest in the country. Don’t know about this year.

This shot is looking north across the river Spaarne. The two bicycle lanes and one-way street curve around it and there’s some monumental buildings on the western side, including the Teylers museum which is currently hosting an exhibition of Michelangelo’s sketches of male bodies.

This is one of the narrow alleys in the southern part of the city. The resident of this alley took great pride in planting all sorts of things across the alleyway and on the side it’s green all around.

This is an early morning shot of one of our more posh shopping streets. You can see a herd of bicycles in the lower left and above the street are the Christmas lights of the city. Just prior to this, a gaggle of bikers pulled into the left to take the back entrance to the gymnasium high school.

This is the Warmoesstraat which I think is one of the cutest streets in the city. This is one of my favorite cooking shop is, for example it’s a narrow street between the main square and one of the streets cutting east to west across the city and see some people walking and some decorations up and there’s a street lamp in the foreground
