Gilbert: A Day in the Country - part 3

After our visit to the Menkemaborg we slowly made our way to the coast.


We stopped shortly to take a picture of this white church


Finally we reached Eemshaven.
Eemshaven is the biggest sea port of the North of the Netherlands.
We didn't go to the port itself, but found a small beach where we could get to the sea.


First I had a look around on the dyke.
There were so many windmills here.


It still was very cloudy.


The beach wasn't the nice sandy sort, it was all sea shells and stones.


I wonder what's at the other side of this sea.
Maybe our owner will take me there one day.




Don't start raining just yet, please!


There were lots and lots of shells!




We even had a bit of sun!


Last stop before the sea.

Next we slowly made our way back to Groningen.


We made a last stop for another church and for something to drink, and then we toured the country back to the city of Groningen.


There was a weird sky on our way back.


In Groningen we went out for dinner at the Sushi Mall


I got to try fried squid.
It was really tasty!


All in all it had been a really fun and adventurous day!

Thanks, Diana and Freya!
