Holiday by bike.

The point with the green + red flag is home, which we left on Monday, and came back to on Saturday. Travelled North the first day, and biked all around. Have to admit that we skipped the part Den Helder-Haarlem, where we took a train, because of our 'Battle on the Afsluitdijk', the day before: a 33 km long dike, in combination with two student bikes, wind speed 7 (even 8 sometimes), no gears, and about one downpour every hour. It took us four full hours :) Luckely parents and sisters, with warm houses, showers, clotheslines, couches, etc., are living along the route..

Flo, doing the cooking.

Insect-eating plant (Drosera).

See those trees bending? We had to bike the opposite direction. For long, long hours. Some parts it was just impossible to bike, so we had to walk a little.

Wadlopen, Groningen

Wadlopen means something like 'walking the tidal flats'. To celebrate a 1st wedding anniversary, we traveled up North for a visit, some wadlopen and a bbq.

Crossing a gut.

Some of us slept in the barn, on top of the dusty straw bales. I climbed a little higher, to meet the whole barn owl family, and sleep under their watching eyes. They found me a very interesting thing, with their wobbling heads.
