How about a Pub Visit after a Long Day Bicycling?

A Dutch pub in the town of Zaanse Schans


Wednesday, April 20, 2022

We finished our visit to the working village of Zaanse Schans at 5 PM and found a parking area to store our bikes.  However, we didn't get picked up by Andre, our van driver, until 6:30 PM.  To pass the time, we found a friendly pub in the town that served a number of Dutch and Belgian beers on tap, along with a few pub snacks.  Nice way to pass an hour after a healthy day of biking in the wind and fresh air.

This local pub looked inviting.  Two of our group had eaten there for lunch and recommended it.

Many great beers on tap.  How to choose?

We arrived "home" at the Aurora after 7:30 PM.  Stopped for a shower, and Michael took a dip in the hot tub.  We had another delicious dinner waiting for us when we were all ready.
