      April 22, 2023 in the Netherlands ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C

      Vollenhove found us and how sweet it was. We went for a walk in a Park Oldruitenborg and found Ruine Totenburg - once a castle with a moat. We had a picnic lunch beside the Grote of St. Nicholaaskirk that over looked the xxx. We continuing our travels. stopping wherever we felt like it, with no specific schedule. One stop found an ice cream stop with a kids go cart track. Another a walk in a Commonwealth War cemetery. We headed to our Air Bnb in Hengelo but ended up in a different city with the same name (how is that possible?). We drove past farm after farm with lined with Dutch flags turned upside down and learned that they were showing their discontent with the plan to reduce the number of cows in the Netherlands by 1/3 by 2030. We back tracked and made our way to our AirBnb that was stacked with meats and cheese and breads for us to enjoy. We were happy to be in this cosy home surrounded by farms.
