At Kinderdijk, windmills stood beside long waterways and grassy dikes. Their turning sails became the first blue picture on the tile.

At Keukenhof, tulips made ribbons of red, yellow, pink, and white. Luna chose one blue tulip picture for the growing tile.

In a sunny courtyard, windmill, canal, tulip, brush, and tower made one finished blue picture. The tile had become their tiny Netherlands journey.
