In Netherlands 1

Holland has a cyclingculture, so everything is geared for the cyclist. Here we are in Drenthe a sparsely populated province of the Netherlands with forrests, heathercountry and farmland.
On the way we found remnants of gravesites which were built there more than 3000 BC.
And of course the occasional windmill.
Chris is taking some measurements.
This is the little house we fell in love with. We passed it many times, it is right in the middle of grainfelds. It would be nice to spend some more time here.

And the new herring had to be tried. The verdict ? 10 out of 10 !!! For those uninitiated, the herring is caught on the NorthSea preferrably the night before, kept in salt and eaten raw with fresh onions. What a delight !!!
