Zwolle

The journey from Dronten to Zwolle was pretty rough - lots of rain and a cold north easterly wind - I begin to wish I had bought the velomobile in Ghent, as it was an all weather vehicle, even having a hood to put on when it rains, but the rain eased off, and I was put in a much better mood when I met Herman Reuvekamp from the Groen Links and we went for a warming bowl of soup - when Herman explained what I was doing the restaurant (Olde Vismarket) let me eat for free. Had a marvellous time with the Groen Links group in Zwolle, visiting a sustainable housing development run by the local authority, and a restaurant in an earthship (a building constructed from waste materials).
