Day 207: I Am Now Absolutely Sure That I Am In Holland

Much to relate, including how in God's name I found myself doing a bicycle ride (on a bike that is too big for me, has one gear, stops when you pedal backwards and goes by the name of Glorie) of UP TO AND INCLUDING 50km today. (That's just over 31 miles! My word.) I am Utterly Exhausted!

On a more positive note, I have been concerned of late that I may not actually be in the Netherlands, despite evidence to the contrary (tulips, shops selling cheese, canals, bicycles, people speaking Dutch - that sort of thing). Happily, on the way to Edam by bicycle today, my fears were allayed.























Well I did say I was tired, didn't I? You just wait until tomorrow. Then you'll be sorry you ever read this post and thought, "Christ alive, that's rubbish, even for Non-workingmonkey!". I've got ALL SORTS, including biscuits, a dog, a gaping fish, a baby in an enormous hat and a man with an accordion. Can you wait? I know I can't!

Baby in an enormous hat! Baby in an enormous hat!

No, no, biscuits first. Biscuits before babies. Or, if you have a picture of a biscuit in an enormous hat, biscuits instead of babies.

Is there provision for an emergency stop there? And why have they got rugby posts over their roads?

Ah "Abroad", how culturally rich it all is.

It's beautiful! And no, I can't wait. I've been quiet lately but I am here...
