Here we have Hans...He lives in the North east of Holland (sorry the Nederland!!) We saw him last in Mongolia where he told us that we would pass his house on the way home and that we must stay at least 2 nights.(we haven't told him yet but we have to leave in the morning!!).. so that is where we are now.. doing this blog.. ( we have to do it as Hans says he can"t manage to do any work until there is another blog to read!!) so here we are 4 beers down and trying to do a blog in Holland (sorry the Nederland!!) (sorry Hans)
Jan and his wife Marij [and Timmy the terrier !].Last time we saw Jan was in Kazakstan... again he said that we would pass by his house on the way home and that we should stay at least 2 nights (so we stayed 1). Well after Jan left us he did get to Mongolia but had an accident damaging his sidecar and his good leg (the right leg is made of wood!) so air ambulance etc to Ulan Battar then a flight home.. everything ok now... next years trip being planned at the moment. What a lovely stay we had......and first waterbed ever.Thank you Jan and Marij.....[the eggs were delicious]
Those of you who have been following the blog will remember Niels and Hanna.. They invited us to stay too.... so we had a wonderful evening hearing some of their tales of their past travel. [The charging moose story is very good...especially Hanna's laughing at the sight of Niels running for his life !]... we will have to stay with them in the future to hear more... Great stories and great people
DIY ferry in Holland ( sorry the Nederland) wind the ferry across and back.. at least it kept us warm.
And now the start of our Holiday.... 27500km then a weeks cycle touring round Holland (sorry the Nederland) with Gary and Jane.[the titanium twins] . We don't know who is the madder, them for coming out at this time of the year with this type of weather to go cycle touring..... or us for not taking the ferry that they got off to go home.?.... You decide... anyway we are having a great time.
