April 9, 2025, Mühlentour durchs Poldergebiet, naturnah und immer entlang der Kanäle,Wassergräben und Grachten.

Today we went on a mill tour through the polder area. The initial main road was somewhat unspectacular, but in Warmond, we were greeted by beautiful villas and small alleys. A quick stop at a cafe in an old schoolhouse. Then we continued through the polder area, along the canals, ditches, and lakes. Numerous small cafes with views of passing ships and boats invite you to stop for a break, and a bright blue sky...❤️ what more could you want! Only the sometimes strong headwind made pedaling considerably more difficult.

On the beautiful warm Omwrdag a round around the Kager plassen. Nice all those boats on the water. Nice elute though, also a small atuk Leiden reached.
