We enjoyed the company of birds following us on our way to Urk. It seemed that they were able to catch small fish in our wake

Zierikzee

 

 

Northsea. The customs checked our papers and fuel. Probably we draw their attention because the boat is a bit indefinable beïng a sailing vessel without masts moving very fast. Luckily everything was in good order and we could proof all taxes had been payed

 

 

In IJmuiden we had diner on board with our cousin and her family
