Cousin Greetje took us on a drive today up through to Marken. Some little villages along the dikes where I would love to live, or at least cycle for a few days. She told me Marken was created from the sea. Started as a fishing village on stilts. From what she told me I thought it was created in the last 50-60 years. It has been there at least 700 years. Crazy. Nice walk about. Some of the photos here are from a few villages on the way there. Ransdorp – Durgerdam – Coffee was at Uytdam.
