UK and Europe '24 Day 10 - Chasing Windmills



We decided to have a day off the bikes today and head a bit further out of town, so we rode as far as Centraal station via the ferry, parked our bike there, and caught a train to Zaandijk Zaanse Schans station to take in the windmills at Zaanse Schans. The train ride is under 20 minutes, then about 15 minutes walk to Zaanse Schans, where you can see the windmills lining the water's edge of the opposite river bank. Only one or two of them are original, the rest having been relocated here from the northern regions for preservation. Walking up into the town from the station, we were greeted by the first of many windmills, at the small chocolate factory. Across the road as a pancake place, it's wall lined with clogs doubling as flower pots, where we decided to head for something to eat.
