Hilversum

16th
Heading to our next stop off at a place called Laren today. Laren is known as one of the most affluent places in North Holland , so definitely only a one night stop there .
Gouda was on the way to Larens , so we obviously had to stop there and buy some gouda cheese. Gouda was a lovely little place and well worth the visit!
We had a few little hiccups along the way from Gouda to Larens : I managed to block a road with the van whilst turning left (the dutch drivers weren't very forgiving ) , also managed to leave a can of Fanta on the side and it went flying and soaked 1 of our rugs, and last ,but certainly not least , the laptop went flying and has left a lovely dent in our floor arghh! - the laptop was fine though !

After all that chaos , we needed to stop off at a supermarket to get our meals for the next few days . First supermarket was not going to happen , barriers to low to enter the car park - thank god we noticed that !
Luckily there was a big shopping complex not too far and we stopped off at the lidl there and managed to stock up sufficiently.
Finally arrived in Larens , at another sports complex that allows free parking for a night . We took Maddy on a good walk and we could certainly see why it's one of the most wealthy places in the Netherlands- the houses were huge and beautifully designed, with electric gates and fancy cars parked on their patios, one was priced at 5 million euros.Okumaya devam et
