After we ate breakfast, Laena, Tante Marianne, and I went to the Groningen Museum. It contained mostly modern type art, which is not my favorite, but the set-up was kind of neat. It was raining the hardest while we were in the museum and was still raining a little when we got out. So we went to a little cafe to eat some sandwiches for lunch until the rain stopped. Then we returned to our hotel to check out and continue on our adventures.
Our next stop on our way home was down to Apeldoorn, to visit the Paleis Het Loo. That is one of the palaces from the Royal family. It was big! We got there with only an hour left to tour, so we couldn't go through the stables or those huge gardens, but we did get to see the main part of the paleis and a little of the gardens. However, we did get to see a peacock in the parking lot, that we chased around the car trying to get a picture of it. It was growing back its tail feathers, so we couldn't get a picture of it fanning its tail.
After the Paleis, we crossed over another dijk and headed to Hoorn. There is a 5-star Chinese Restraunt there that Tante Marianne had been to before, so we decided to eat there. It was soooo good!!! Yummy!!
