We mostly took Easter Sunday off. The wind was blowing a gale with occasional squalls of rain. We took the opportunity to sleep in, and then had a slow go at the morning.

The campground is located in reclaimed industrial land that was once a switch yard for the rail road. The park is large and wide open. It has been well used since we have been here. We spent most of the day watching hearty souls trying to have family picnics in a gale. It was pretty entertaining for us, maybe less so for the picnickers.

Yesterday when we walked by a big Albert Heijn they had a sign saying they were open 365 days per year which is unusual in Europe. Early in the afternoon we decided to test that statement and took a quick walk there. Even though we didn’t think that we needed anything we somehow ended up coming back with two full bags of groceries. That was the highlight of our Easter.
