On arrival we were met by the very friendly cat who was soon joined by Roel who made us feel very welcome. Each day we would sit around the table to chat at length about our day in Amsterdam. Roel is a charming and interesting host.

The windmill is situated close to the bus stop on route 69 which runs to and from the airport. The area itself is not particularly interesting but a short walk or bus ride takes you to the tram into the city centre (route 13 or 17).

The highlight was undoubtedly Roel's guided tour of the mill and to be able to see it running at speed was a real treat.

Thank you Roel. I hope we shall meet again.
