We arrived at Schiphol just after noon on Monday - good flight from Toronto - slept quite a bit on the plane so were not too tired when we got there. Luggage was all there even though we had to wait quite a while for the bikes, Joe was getting a little worried that they were not coming. We got our rental car and were on the road by 2:00 arriving in Bennekom just after 3:00. By 8:00 p.m. we could hardly keep our eyes open so we headed off to bed - hit the pillow and we were gone. By 1:00 a.m. we were both awake, read a while and fell back to sleep - Joe was up by 8:00 and I slept right through until 9:00. It's a bit overcast today - the bikes have been put together but we are not going out today. Tomorrow it promises to be better cycling weather so we will head out then.
We did a walking tour earlier today and will take a car ride in the countryside this afternoon.....the top picture is at a war cemetery in Grebbeberg where there are many Canadian soldiers buried. The picture with cows is one that Jacob took and put into a steel window case that came from the old family (deWeerd) homestead in Dwingeloo. The bottom two photos show some of the many figures that grace the downtown Bennekom area.
