Wednesday I needed to get away from the daily ritual of life. I took Erwin to the train station, went grocery shopping, and watched wildlife wandering along the road on my way home. When the kids both arrived home, we took a picnic lunch to one of my favorite nature areas in Holland, went on a walking adventure, and played hide and seek among the plants and trees. There are long wooden bridges which forge a gap between wet, muddy shoes and the swamp lands. There is a tower to climb and see miles upon miles of grasses and heather, and the wildlife is abound. We saw many frogs, bugs, birds, dragonflies, horses, cows...and with the sun shining and a breeze blowing, it was the perfect remedy for a brittle soul. Here are pictures of our day out in De Grote Peel...the swamplands of Holland, the freelands of my soul.

looks like you had a great time and it sounds like it was sorely needed!!
Girl you are adorable, do you know that....
I love these photos and wish I'd seen this bit of Holland. There are few things I like as much as a long walk in a beautiful place.
That's a picture of you? Wow! Very pretty.
The walk sounds very nice too. I hope the boys loved it!
