HOLLAND

---

Early start again, breakfast and off to the pick up point for the Tour. Hopped on the double decker bus and out to Zaanse Schans …. A quick tour of the windmills used for all types of work …. Sawing wood, Grinding wheat, pumping water, making paint etc ….. carried on across flat land as far as the eye can see below sea level and at Marken saw a Clogg making demonstration. Made the short walk to the ferry and a ride across the biggest man made lake in Europe to Volendam, we watched a cheese making demonstration and sampled lots, had some time here and our sandwiches made at breakfast, returned to Amsterdam by 2 pm …across to the hotel and a quiet afternoon, headed out about 5 pm and had dinner KFC and a short wander around again ….back to the hotel and sorted out for boarding the boat tomorrow.
