Day 5 (Wednesday 9th) Zaanse Schans

Today we went to Zaanse Schans, a mill village with several windmills and timber houses near Amsterdam. It was clearly a popular place as we struggled to find a car parking space and there were already 8 coaches there when we arrived.

After a hot chocolate and a late lunch, we made our way back, calling at Lidl and Aldi for some provisions for a picnic tea in the room.
