Field Trip
A walk, a tram ride, a train, a bus, walking, and a bike to get to the Kröller-Müller Museum. It took us a little over an hour and lots of determination. We always enjoy getting out of the city, seeing the scenery beyond and exploring big outdoor spaces. This beautiful museum is set in a national park. The Dutch have long goals of reducing carbon emissions and so give incentives to ride public transportation, walk, use a bike and go electric.
At the entrance of the museum there are 1700 free bikes each one complete with a baby seat. There are no hand gears and it’s a pedal braking system. Thankfully, it’s perfectly flat. Suffice it to say that you rarely see a Dutch person that is not fit. It warmed my heart every time I saw a older adult clad with gray hair and wrinkles, leathered skin and gnarled hands happily and confidently riding their bike down the bike path.
Getting back to our room: a bike ride, a walk, a bus, a train, a tram and a walk!
And for real excitement the next day we did our laundry!
