Back at our "Home away from home port"

We arrived back in Leeuwarden, and it is time to take "Le rêve" out of the water to do a bottom inspection.








This time the equipment of the Hemrik marina is able to take Le reve out of the water, and up the ramp all the way.










Even after being in the water the bottom paint looks pretty good.

But we applied a couple of fresh coats, and she should be "good to go " for another three years.








Le rêve at rest on the "hard" in Leeuwarden.

And so ends our 2010 spring trip of the "Low land"

Dinner guests

The Captain and his crew from "Altijd warber" (Always busy) was over on Le reve (the dream) for dinner

Docked in "Sneek"

Lemmer and beyond

After passing through the lock and the city of "Lemmer" we continued on through the Provence of "Friesland"







Friesland and it's beautiful rural setting

On route to Lemmer

We continued on the IJssel, and crossed over the IJsselmeer once more to go to Lemmer
One the way we left Urk at our starboard side.

Fam. visit

In Kampen we took the bike to IJselmuiden and visited my uncle, my Dad's youngest brother, and the only surviving member of that generation.

On the way to Kampen

We left Zwolle, and on the banks of the IJssel were my cousin Dina with her husband Jan, and their friends Wim and Toni.
They came to visit once we were moored, and the next day we were invited for lunch.
It was so good we did not eat again all day!!!
