Hier nog een stukje dat Robin heeft geschreven op het Engelse forum:
Well we just got back. We had a great time. Off the boat Thursday morning. Up the coast and met Mischa and Floris at Egmond AAn Zee, over the Ijsseimeer Dam and onto Hemrik. Booked in the Do and then onto the Digs. An old Farm House. quaint inside. Steep stairs, and A very good welcome. Coffee on the lawn with cake as well. A real touch of Dutch hospitality and a piece of the country side. Great. I got a mattresses in the Front room and Andrew got a bed in a Cupboard. Old world style. Anyway it was a 1.5 mile walk back to the proceedings and about a 2 mile stagger back at 2 am. Ride out to Papenburg, Germany on the Friday. And a Longer stager back from the do, may have been about 3am. Then Saturday it rained so we stayed at home in the digs. Talked, chatted and really enjoyed each others company. Walked to the do for lunch and returned for a few hours recuperation ready for the night do again. Anyway we managed to leave on Sunday morning after the group pics on the sports field, and stopped off at a system of canals with lovely houses on the ground bits in between, near Giethoorn, Meppel. Great lunch and all the little boats paddling past. All too short a visit that ended much too early. To the next time. Thanks to all the Dutch especially Mischa and Floris for the great time!!
