Today we celebrated our wedding anniversary. Weather was wonderful, so after a quick visit of parents and relatives, we headed to the Grote Peel. The Grote Peel is a natural park in which people is trying to preserve the old condition of a dutch "veen", i.e. the ground water is kept as high as possible (no drenage) and grass is minimized.
Those kind of "veen" have been destroyed by mining peat, which is the english for "veen".
The walk was nice and relaxings. We could not see a lot of birds, which were hiding from the heat and the tourists, but we managed a couple of frogs. Milo really enjoys those excursions, whilst Kyara can't wait for doing something more urban.
