Biking around Zwolle


In Zwolle we went for a long bike ride. From Zwolle to Hasselt, and back a mere (32 km!!!) and we had to cross the "voet veer" (walk on ferry)
The operator had to come across the stream to come and get us






Joanne paid the fare ( a mere sixty cents) and we were transported across.







The ferry was propelled by the operator pulling on a cable attached to both sides of the bank.
Later we were told the operator is a professor who does this as a hobby.
