Sunday 28th August 2011 Purmerend 60km

We rode from Amsterdam to Purmerend yesterday and checked into the Hampshire golf hotel which is very nice. Today we rode to Monnickendam and then along the causeway to Marken Island. I found Marken to be a bit too contrived and dreary, but then we rode back and on to Volendam which was delightful. Lots of classy bars and restaurants facing the harbour. We cycled through Edam where the edam cheese style originated and then along a dyke following a canal back to Purmerend.It rained on and off today, but not enough to worry us.
