Today's ride started with a gentle trip to Delftse Hout with Jen. After we got there, our paths diverged and I took off Northeastward. I kept going that way until I was almost at Zoetermeer, at which point I veered slightly less upwind.
That took me to the groenzoom, which apparently has many birds.
The birds seemed to want to leave their own mark on the sign.
I thought it was Zoetermeer, since this is how I think Zoetermeer looks.
It wasn't though; the map shows pretty clearly that I didn't cross that border.
I also took the opportunity to take a picture of the Zoomies. I don't have a lot of those:
Anyway, I meandered my way around for a while until my 1 hour timer went off. Right then, I looked to my right and saw this guy.
I took the opportunity to stop and plot a route home. The one I ended up taking went past Intratuin.
I popped in for some flowers and strawberries, then went home.
