Dutch Pancakes

Today we took a nice bike ride and stopped to get Dutch pancakes. As a family, we honestly never took bike rides like this in the US and we all enjoyed it. We rode to the Amsterdamse Bos. It is a forest and recreation area that has many bike paths. Our total trip today was a little over 15 km. The restaurant, Boerderij Meerzicht, is in the Amsterdamse Bos.



The pancakes were great! You could get sweet or savory. The girls and I chose sweet pancakes and Dave had one with bacon, cheese, and syrup. For the sweet pancakes, the actual pancake was not sweet like American pancakes, but the toppings were very sweet.



We obviously enjoyed them. Here's a picture of Grace's clean plate :)





All of my pet lover friends would love being in the Netherlands! From what I have seen, you can pretty much take your pet anywhere! There were multiple dogs with their owners at the restaurant today. I've also seen them in the mall and in stores.

On the way back, we rode a different way and went by a place in the park known for its rowing regattas. There was a group practicing today.
