Day 15 & 16 chilling in Leiden

This has been two days with some time to decompress and recharge the batteries… Klara and I spent most of the Saturday just reading books, watching movies and catching up on e-mail. We also went to a nice food-market and bought lots for vegetables and made some nice dinner.

On Sunday we took a long bicycle ride (about 70 km or so) to the ocean and went around a lot… was great but i do have some muscle ache afterwards 🙂

 

Windmills are kind of a big thing in Holland… here is the official one that Rembrandts father worked in. (Or rather, this is a replica ;-))

 

Clara reading a book in the living room

 

Meeting up with some of Klara’s friends in the evening.

 

Me at the beach…observe the Kite-surfer in the background… there where about 10 of them out there at the same time :-) 

 

Cycling in Holland… (yea… it was not as fast as the guy to the right :-D)

 

 

Klara in front of some sand-dunes… these little fellows are what keeps the ocean from flooding the Netherlands.

 

We found some guys doing line-dancing by the beach… so of course I tried to join in 😀

 

The beach boulevard… you kind of had to watch out for the birds though… 😀

 

Klara taking a well deserved break after all our cycling!
