Bikes, Windmils and wind


Today we woke up and drove to the nearby town of Edam, where we rented bikes for the day. Once they were rented and Emily and I had some food from a nearby bakery, we set of to a windmill. It turned out that the windmill was a museum.We went to it,but when we go there we found it was closed. So we climbed a hill to look at sheep, and there was the ocean! You would never know it was there it you didn't climb the ridge. We biked for a while, checked the map, turned around checked the map again and went back on the first path.
We biked for a long time and finally found a restaurant where we had sandwiches and fries. Then we started our trek against the wind back to our car. Dad had to push us a lot, but it helped, when we got into town we wandered for a while, trying to figure out where to go, but we asked, and eventually reaturned the bikes and drove home.
