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.

Today, after a year and a half, finally another APS-DSR competition. Almost two hours in the car there and then almost two hours in the car back but it was great fun again.

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.

Today I went for a motorcycle ride to the isle Tholen. I stopped to drink a little water at a small harbour at Nieuw-Strijen, a very small village that I did not know it excisted

Today I had some quality time with my youngest son. We went to 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.
The Open Air museum with a lot of original old buildings from all over The Netherlands is absolutely worth visiting !

In the evening we took the touristic route home and had a nice dinner at a snackbar in Bergambacht.
It was a late fathersday present for me and I enjoyed it very much.
