“Traces of war” hike and Castle Heeswijk
Hike “Traces of war” In a part of the Loonse and Drunense dunes that we haven’t covered yet, stood a memorial monument. We hiked for two kilometers from our car to the memorial place.

That probably had something to do with it. We decided on renting a electric boat for the day and just cruise through the small canals and national parks nearby. It turned out to be a very nice day indeed. We did think about what it must…

New stay and National Park Weerribben
We left our lovely stay in Putten, said goodbye to our hostess and a few hours later we arrived at our next stay in Zwolle. New stay This stay is a farm that’s build on a mount. We get to stay in the front of the house and are allowed to use its massive garden. The owner and his wife are staying in the other side of the house and have their own private garden aswell. For the next ten days we will be staying here. Not too bad right?! National Park Weerribben This Park is actually called Weerribben – Wieden because it’s divided in two pieces. For every park…
