A very quiet start in Sneek this morning. Quickly got of town and heading south. John P would like a poncho and cowboy boots to go with his 'ruched' shorts. We had a good ride, some wind against us which was frustrating, but it was warm and we managed a good distance. Scenery was varied, which is good as it is all very flat. Surprising amount of wildlife,lots of herons, ducks etc. We were on paths on top of dykes a number of times today. This gave us a good view over the surrounding area.
We eventually arrived in Kampen, went to the VVV,(Tourist information) and it was closed. There was a list on the door of possibilities. Another couple of cyclists had started phoning down the list and were getting FULL. they managed to get somewhere and then we started, luckily the first hotel we tried had 2 rooms and we took those. Hotel was close to centre, had a lock up for the bikes and served us cold beer ond nibbles. Bliss.
