To Leeuwarden where there were loads of HUGE houseboats. Hosted Alex for dinner in Bertha then had twilight wander in town

Uneventful morning. Appreciated Afsluitdijk + Dutch engineering. Bertha attacked by flies on way to overnight stop in shadow of wind turbine

Great church service and chat over coffee with a couple from Delft. Very short drive then chilled afternoon

Another Talbot Express at our campsite!!! Pretty + short drive to cheese + clog farm. Appreciated both and a beautiful evening

Bus into Amsterdam and cracking free walking tour of the city. Stroopwafels afterwards, then "barbecue" in Bertha due to wind outside

Filled leaking hole with Sikaflex then drove to our Amsterdam campsite. Promptly got stuck in mud and were towed out by tractor

Cycled around Hoge Veluwe national park (about 16 miles), just missing the rain. Massive thunderstorm. Bertha started leaking. Doh

Woke up to rain. Plan to go cycling postponed as we spent a day in Bertha; drawing, reading and doing film work

First showers of second loop. Bliss! Fun parallel parking in Kinder Dijk. WINDMILLS! First mosquito inside Bertha when we went to bed.

Church service in morning, then drive along the Zeeland coast to campsite. Did clothes washing and had a wander on the beach
