Drifting in Houten

After the first dismal day in Holland the weather improved and the sun came out, briefly. So it was time to get out and enjoy ourselves. Houten was very quiet, due to the exodus of citizens. The Dutch are very keen on holidaying elsewhere.
First stop the ice cream shop!
Raphy eating his ice cream in the trailer, amongst all the bicycles!
Emma, Steve, Jackson and Isabel came to visit. They brought their bicycles of course, so that they could tour around the area. I have heard they got lost in Houten, but I could be wrong. Just rumours!
At the skateboard park. Jackson, Mia, Abi and Isabel lined up ready to go! Jackson was very keen to test his skills on his BMX bike.
Are these unusual birds in the tree? No, just an assortment of broken skateboards, shoes and other objects.
On Friday we drove through back to Dunkerque. Emma and Steve told us about another more indirect route, which was much better than sitting in traffic jams on the motorway. Home again!
