The mill is beautiful, you just have to take the back bike path, otherwise you drive directly past the road. And at the crossroads at the “port” we were lucky enough to find a van with delicious fish sandwiches.

The weather was great.
There was delicious cake and latte macchiato (even with oat drink) at the Matthies fruit farm. New harvest of apples and pears and a few beans wanted to come along.
