Say Cheese

Alkmaar was on our original list to visit, however it’s best to visit on a Friday to take in the weekly cheese market, which is held between March & November.  Typical that we were unable to visit on a Friday…

Blooming Flowers!

The Bulbfields, Keukenhof & The Bloemencorso We booked a camping spot back in November, chosen so we were able to cycle to all three of these on our “To Do” list.   Looking back now we think it was more…

Amsterdam

The longest we have stayed in one place!  This was to give us 3 full days in Amsterdam.  Location of the site was great, just a 20 minute walk to the free ferry straight over to the city. Day 1…

Off Again

After 3 nights in Durnal, it was time to leave.  First though off to collect the “Parcel”.  Oh yes it was there as promised.   A point to note is that the roads in Belgium are as bad as the…

Backache & Gas Gate

We had plan A-D to deal with the gas situation.  Our destination depended on which plan we implemented!  However an added factor is that G has a really bad back pain, so we are going to include a few “down”…
