This is a videoclip of the molens in Kinderdijk. The video is recorded on 6 June 2007. It is recorded with a Traveler DV 5070 camcorder with 5.0 megapixels.(The quality used to be much better, first I made the size of the video smaller, but then the quality is still quite good but for some reason is it on YouTube worse quality) The music in the clip is from Alice Cooper with the song Schools Out For Summer.

In the beginning of the clip you see some of the Dutch landscape. We don't got any mountains, it is all flat.

In the clip you see the windmills/molens of Kinderdijk near Alblasserdam and Nieuw Lekkerland, the special thing of Kinderdijk is that there are many windmills positioned close to eachother. This is what makes the windmills of Kinderdijk different to other places. I tried to count the windmills and I came to the number 23, but I'm not sure whether this is true.

On the end you see the famous ''wooden shoes''. The Dutch word for ''wooden shoes'' is ''klompen''. And to make it clear, the Dutch people do not wear wooden shoes anymore, we are all wearing normal shoes!!

This video was recorded with a Traveler DV 5070.(the quality is much better on the computer then on Youtube)

  • Correction, There are 19 windmills in Kinderdijk, I know because I've been living not far from here (Nieuw-Lekkerland) for all my life.

  • ow oke, ja dat ken ik wel ;) ik woon in Alblasserdam ;) ik had ze een keer geteld en kwam op 23 maar ik denk dat ik er dan een paar 2 keer heb geteld ofzo ;) bedankt voor de informatie!!

    Ik zie je comment nu pas op een of andere manier, normaal kijk ik altijd naar alle comments sorry voor de late reactie!

  • Wel een leuk filmpje by the way. Altijd leuk om je geboorte omgeving terug te zien in filmpjes.

  • Mooi gemaakte video!!

  • Oh I so agree! yikes, these lovely, quaint scenes are not at all compatible with the ...music.

  • I'm sorry but I just now see your comment for the first time...

    my camcorder that I used here is a Traveler DV5070. I bought it for about 100 euro, it's not really a proffesional camcorder but the image is good, it has 5mpx video only when you are recording a long video the sound and image is not in sync anymore. And the image on the computer is better then it is here on YouTube.

  • hey i am thinking about buying a camcorder

    and what is this video camera called

    hte model i want to buy a good one
