On safari

We planned on visiting after the Fair was over. I was pretty sure we had reservations to fly on September 8. At least I was pretty sure until checking in on line on the evening of September 6 and finally noticed that the date listed in the check-in notice was September 7.

So we are here now. We rented a bicycle for the Fellow Traveler today and got in a nice ride to a couple of local landmarks.

We love the bats.
And then on to the state park.
September is a little bit different here.

The beach is virtually empty and you can cross the road leading out to the state park beach without waiting for a couple of hundred cars to go by.

It gets dark a little bit earlier but we are happy to be here.

So you had fun, fun, fun?

Holland without tourists is a much more peaceful place. And the roads are a lot safer without them.

We're happy you are here.

It was a lovely ride without much wind at all and so nice not to have to worry about traffic. I agree that we are happy to be here!

Ah, the bats. Be careful. Mom is standing dangerously close.
