We’d been following LF10 since leaving Den Helder and it
bought with it a noticeably greener scenery than that of our first few days.
More and more wind turbines began to penetrate the increasingly flat horizons. The undulation of the coastal routes was certainly not missed! All along the
Dutch western border were further opportunities to hop off to one of the Dutch islands
but having already more than halved the suggested speed for completing the
Ronde van Nederland we thought that 1 was enough this time.Onward we skirted a beautifully enormous man-made lake, the Lauwersmeer, and enjoyed a free pedalo around the considerably smaller lake surrounding our secluded campsite later that day. With the setting sun came thoughts of our grandmother (our 'oma') who was born in the very province of Friesland. It's nice to know that we can now say we've been there...
