With our daughter and her three children and with two grandsons we went to rge archeological themepark Archeon in Alphen aan de Rijn.
The two brothers were dressed as Vikings and they realy enjoyed to play in a Viking environment and the other children had a very good time too. And when the children have a good time, we have a good time.


We got a swordfighting course for beginners

This afternoon I went to a tractorpulling event in Ossendrecht to write an article about it for our newssite. The weather was nice so I got there on my old Goldwing that I parked next to a brand new Goldwing GL1800.
Tractorpulling is always spectaculair so it was nice to get some pictures for in my article about it.

For our newssite, I went to Gallery Lukisan in Bergen op Zoom. I took the scenic route so I could use the GoPro video for a new Motormobilist video.

Today I went on a seal safari along the Westerschede dike. I wanted to make an interesting Motormobilist video so I thought this could be a nice and interesting goldwing ride.
I did see some seals but they were far away, but you could see them very good with the telescope at the viewpoint. Unfortunately, my zoom lens was nog as good as the telescope but I have a picture anyway.

When my wife was very young and lived with her parents, she bought a big tent, the 'Super Adelaar Senior'. She still has that tent but we have not used for many years and we were wondering if it was still good.
Yesterday we erected the tent in our front yard and it looked OK. We had some rain tonight and it was still dry in the tent so that is good. We only need to repair a zipper and we need to buy some small things like tent pegs and guylines.

This Saturday we went to Veenendaal, to visit the historical motorcycle race, together with our oldest son and his family.
I love these old bikes so I made a lot of pictures (but here I use only one picture).

We visited our youngest son and his family on his holiday address in the East of the Netherlands (two and a half hour in the car) and with them we had a ride on the Leemspoor train. An old museum train that used to be used for transporting clay to the brick factories.

After our little trainride we went to the Rijssens museum, an old castle and a fire brigade museum.

After I returned from my ride, the book that our son Vincent wrote about his motorcycle accident had arrived.
It is a very interesting and beautiful book.

I had to write an article about an art exhibition in Bergen op Zoom and parked my bike near the St. Getrudis church in the center of the town.
It is so nice to combine making an article with a nice motorcycle ride.
