Team Triplet Photo Review 1999 - Our Trip to the Netherlands
This year we were more adventurous - Ceri-Siân and I went to the Netherlands for 2 weeks without Ann. The First week we spent at a posh campsite at Kootwijk between Amersfoort and Apeldoorn. Here is Ceri-Siân riding a 4 wheel recumbent cycle, oops I mean Skelter or rather go-cart.

A second train trip was to the Zuider Zee Museum at Enkhuizen. Here is Ceri-Siân posing by the Windmill. We got an annual Museum Pass which incuded the Zuider Zee museum, and with our trip to Amsterdam earlier in the week we got our money's worth.

Here is Ceri-Siân making a skipping rope. The week we were there was the end of Whit week after the Dutch children had gone back to skool, so the museum was quiet.

Here is Ceri-Siân remembering she should off been at skool. We had to take Ceri-Siân out of skool for a week before Spring Bank Holiday weekend and 2 days of Spring Bank Holiday week, as in those days Leicestershire skools only had a short break.

With our numerous train trips in the Netherlands, Ceri-Siân was impressed with the little shunters known as "Siks" (goats).
