Today's ride with the Motorcycling connect group would actually be done
with four people. Unfortunately, it turned out that two participants
were unable to participate, so Saturday morning around ten o'clock I
was alone with Alwin in the parking lot at Motoport in Goes.
But then we received an app from Thijs who invited us to come for coffee
with him in Vlissingen. That seemed like a nice idea, so we set course
for Vlissingen via nice country roads and through picturesque villages.
Thijs joined our ride and with the three of us, we rode to the boulevard
in Vlissingen.

On our way to Oostkapelle, we stopped at the lighthouse near the beach
and then we rode from Walcheren to Noord Beveland and from there over the
Zandkreeksluis back to our starting point, Motoport in Goes.

Almost two hours in the car there and then almost two hours in the

One of my old aunts is in a nursing home in Voorburg. Today I went
there for a walk with her in a wheelchair (and about thirty other
old people in wheelchairs) and a picknick in the park.

After the walk, I went to my sister and we went together to
Leidschendam for a coffee and a big stroopwafel before I went home.

For an article on our newssite, I went to an opendoor day at
a building with eleven artists workshops.
Most of them were ARSIS members (a local artist assosiation)
that I had met before and it was nice to see them again after
more then a year covid-19 lockdown.

Castle Doorwerth first, to visit the castle.

Then we had lunch at the restaurant at the castle and went to the
Open Air museum in Arnhem.
At the Open Air museum, they were recording a music show for TV.
