Day 6

Sunday 17 July 2011

We started the day with an American breakfast made by Charles and Dian. Roadside assistance, fetched by Sebastian, showed up and declared our van's transmission old and cranky but probably healthy, checked our squeaky belt and waved goodbye.

Nicole canters!
Dian enjoys!
We pitched in by weeding the garden while Roos mowed the new lawn before she took us to meet the other family members, Coletta and her yearling Fay, and under Roos' expert guidance we got a chance to ride. We all trotted and Nicole and Charles cantered too, and it wasn't even in a synagogue. Oye! We went out into a field full of foals and had a great experience petting them.


Back home, Henri was firing up the BBQ for our final night in Neerkant. We saw a double rainbow, and packed for Amsterdam the next day.
