Groningen

Had a wonderful stay with our friends Heleen and Mark in Groningen, Netherlands.

Headed North to the coast enjoying a drive around the countryside. Lovely canals, tree lined roads, windmills, flat fields, bicycles and tiny hamlet villages. All very pretty actually. Finished the day with a bbq over a few drinks.

Great friends Helen and Mark. Very very nice that they looked after us during our short stay.

St George, as in St George and the Dragon.

Took the long path from Northern Netherlands to Northern Belgium along the coast and through driving rain. Again the countryside was amazing green and beautiful. During the drive we visited the low point for the Netherlands, at which time the weather gods decided to stop with the rain.

GPS confirming that we are below Sea Level.
