This one was short but sweet: a short walk and a heavy downpour.

We left home in reasonably sunny weather, which gradually turned cloudy, and after 3 kilometers, a heavy downpour. We sheltered under the A2 viaduct for a while, but that wasn't all, so we "drove off" home. It wasn't even photo-perfect weather

And today we were faced with another road diversion, meaning we couldn't start at the beginning of the Klompenpad. It wasn't a big deal; beginning, halfway, end... it was equally beautiful everywhere. Beautiful paths along meadows, along forest trails, trudging through the sand, or a few climbs. This

It had rained heavily last night, so we weren't initially planning on going for a walk.

But after a few small tasks, we got the itch, so we put on our hiking boots.

We checked the komoot map to see where we hadn't been yet, and that was Sysselt.

And we certainly didn't regret it. The outward journey was

We had a delicious meal, as a thank you for babysitting, at Bistro Le Steak. The decor is lovely, with photos of John Wayne; the Cartwright family from the Pondarosa from Bonanza; and Rowdy Yates from Rawhide. Of course, that doesn't mean anything to the kids, but it certainly does to us.🤩

After so much great promotion for Lunteren, and because we're now camping so close by, we went exploring on our own! I've adjusted the route a bit.

After searching for a parking spot (due to roadworks), we started a bit later in the steady drizzle. And I have to say, it was definitely worth it 🤩. It

Today was a gray, gloomy day. But nothing stopped us from taking a walk. So, warmly dressed, we headed to the Edese Bos. I'd planned a route from a parking lot... which happened to be a crematorium parking lot🫣. We left the car there, hoping no one would come out to politely ask us to move (has happened

We discovered that the Breukerengpad clog path passed right by our door. So we hopped on it this morning! But unfortunately, when I think of a clog path, I get a completely different image... lots of farm paths, meadows, stiles, and ditches. This clog path had many paved roads and weaved through new

Up early, the dogs well cared for, and after breakfast, we put on our walking shoes and headed to the town center, which boasts no fewer than three churches. There are also plenty of shops and restaurants. Afterward, we walked towards the Bennekom Forest, along with many others. The weather was perfect

Our son is snowboarding for a week, and we're looking after the house and the dogs. In this area and with this beautiful weather, that's definitely no punishment 😁.

Today we took a walk around the Hoekelum Estate with its beautiful straight lanes and forest paths. At the head of the Hoekelumse Spreng

It was already a bit late for our planned walk, but we first had to go to the travel agency this morning to book our holiday. Also important 😉.

It felt like spring today, and despite the beautiful weather, it was wonderfully quiet on the Kerkeindse Heide.

The only odd moment was when we were walking along
