Saturday morning was overcast with a forecast to rain starting at noon. It started at breakfast. We rode our bikes to the monument near Haarlam to recognize the youth and the ongoing a battle with the sea (no he did not have his finger in the dike). It continued to rain all the way to Amsterdam, a total of 35 km. Arriving in Amsterdam we had lunch at a film and food festival before continuing on to the Elodie. We relaxed on the barge before going out to an Argentinian restaurant for dinner. Wamme, our skipper, took some of us for a walking tour around Amsterdam to end the evening.
It was still raining on Sunday morning. We had our final breakfast before heading out to find our hotel in Amsterdam.

Good thing you brought that rain gear! But you all look comfortable and I’m happy it isn’t bad enough to halt the tours. Great blog!
