Last Day on the Barge



On Thursday we biked through the tulip fields. I won't bore you with my inadequate descriptions of the lovely colors but I'll post a few pictures and try and let you see what we were so lucky to have seen. In the afternoon we went to the Kierkenhof, a Disneyland type place with every bulb plant known to man. It was really quite extraordinary. Last night we docked in the center of Haarlem, another medieval town. We walked through town and had our one night with dinner on our own.
Today, everyone is doing some thing different. Doug and one group biked out to see the dunes on the North Sea and then they'll bike into Amsterdam (should be beyond exciting). Kass, Mary and others are riding the barge into Amsterdam and then will tool around town. Carole and I will leave the barge and then bike into north Holland for the afternoon. We'll see how all of this goes!
