Today it was double August for us !
(and "us" meaning the knitting group
that started some years ago at the Alpaca farm,
then stopped, and went "on tour" this year
because it was fun, and we wanted it to continue)
So for me :
bike, boat, bike in the other direction than normally :
namely to Dordrecht now.
We were in this holiday month not meeting
at one of our member's places, but,
at the wonderful restaurant
It is housed in the former pump building
and water tower of the Dordrecht Waterworks
After the entrance you first get to the bakery and a market,
where you can buy the most wonderful presents
(for someone, or yourself)
Then you come to the restaurant part and then ...
to the terras and the garden !
With the hotel ...
in the water tower !
The garden is used to grow a lot of their own vegetables
(you can buy some of those in the little market too !)
Chatting and knitting
and drinking coffee and tea.
(and none of us could resist the de-li-ci-ous cakes !!!)
The weather was okay, and we had a wonderful morning !
If you ever go to Dordrecht ...
go visit Villa Augustus :
a true experience !
