City tower of Enkhuinze

Friesland a province in the north

Ferry Enkhuizen Stavoren, 1¼ optional hour journey

Today the ferry already leaves the port of Enkhuizen around 08.45. The distance is approximately 25 km. There is a cycle group from German who occupy three-quarters oft the deck with bikes.

The trip goes through the "Gaasterland". Windmills on the left and on the right, old fashioned and new ones, grain and watermills. Large extent of land is under sea level. I read on a billboard, "Abe Lenstra football stadium". In my time he was the Idol of all young football players.

It is 5 pm. as we arrive in Gorredijk, a good time for supper. And what do you eat in Friesland? Fresh seawater fish, plaice, cod, eel, herring - you name it. Prepared in all kinds of ways
