Parc De Witte Vennen | We Voelen Spanningen | Venray Van Boven | Fietsen Door Het Oorlogsmuseum #84

Good morning, everyone! The sun is streaming in through the window, and what more could you ask for? Do you have your coffee ready? I sure do, and if not, it's on its way. Perhaps you're just stepping out of the shower, getting ready to seize the day. Well, pull up a chair, because we're about to embark on a delightful breakfast adventure.

A Day of Exploration

Today is the day we bid farewell to our current haven, Duizel, and set out for new horizons. We're never really saying goodbye, though, because we always return to these beloved places. The allure of this spot keeps drawing us back - a charming spot for cycling and basking in the camper life.

We find ourselves in the Eindhoven-Veldhoven-Eersel triangle. A region that offers a cornucopia of experiences. So, what more could we possibly desire?

Well, this place is wonderfully maintained, especially during the summer. It's a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, and everything is just a pedal away. It's a true gem.

Breakfast Delights

Now, let's talk breakfast. It's an essential part of our day, and we're kicking it up a notch. Behold, a scrumptious and healthy omelet with champignons and a sprinkling of peppers and salt. The secret sauce? Some top-notch, sugar-free peanut butter from Maastricht's renowned peanut butter shop.

Why this particular peanut butter, you ask? Well, it's loaded with protein and no added sugars. As we've ventured into a healthier lifestyle, we've been discovering the goodness of such choices. And it turns out, this peanut butter is not only good for us but absolutely delicious!

Exploring the Neighborhood

As we savor our breakfast, the TV blares to life. Max, our trusty companion, doesn't hesitate to chime in. He's eager to hit the road, exploring new territory. But before we get rolling, we can't resist the urge to delve into a delightful surprise gifted by our camper friends. Patience pays off, they say, and we're ready to unwrap it.

Inside the camper, it's time to gear up Max, our loyal four-legged friend, and get him all set. We mustn't forget the essential rituals of our travels, ensuring everything is in order for the journey ahead.

The Adventure Begins

And there we are, back on the road. The camper has become our faithful companion, and we're thrilled to see where it leads us today. The beauty of camper life is that every day is a new adventure, and today is no exception.

Revisiting Fond Memories

We arrive back in Brabant, and it's remarkable how quickly we transition from one place to another. We continue to wander through the scenic countryside, heading towards Oostrum. This is the land of soybean roots, and our parents live here, enjoying the idyllic surroundings.

After an enriching family day, we're excited to continue our journey tomorrow. Until then, we'll relish a peaceful evening, watching a bit of TV, reading a book, and perhaps indulging in a few treats.

Good Morning and Onward

The morning sun welcomes us with open arms. We're feeling fresh and ready to take on the day. Our location: Camping De Witte Vennen in Oostrum, right next to Venray. The Maasduinen National Park is nearby, and there's a splendid bike route we've planned. It's time to hop on our bicycles and see where the path leads.

The Maasduinen area offers an array of natural wonders, and we've picked out some hotspots to share with you. It's a highlight reel of this stunning region, and we're eager to take you along.

The Beauty of Nature

The bike route takes us through beautiful landscapes, away from the hustle and bustle of Maasduinen. We're delving deeper into the forested areas, escaping into nature. The lush greenery and serene surroundings are just what we need to rejuvenate our spirits.

The sound of the breeze in the trees, the sweet chirping of birds, and the scent of blooming flowers—it's a sensory experience like no other. As we traverse this enchanted forest, we can't help but be humbled by the beauty of Mother Nature.

A Historical Encounter

Our journey brings us to a fascinating point of interest, the Overloon War Museum. This is a place Cindy has long desired to visit. And not only do we get to explore the museum, but we also have the unique opportunity to cycle through it.

Yes, you read that right. We're pedaling our way through history, right through the museum's grounds. It's a captivating and educational experience that we're eager to share in our next adventure.

A Campsite to Remember

Back at the campsite, we take a moment to appreciate the surroundings. Camping De Witte Vennen is a gem with a variety of pitches, some offering water, sewage, and electricity. The neat and tidy setup is perfect for campers and caravanners alike.

For those with children, this place is a paradise. There are playgrounds, mini-golf, and even an animation team to keep the little ones entertained. The camping ground is well-equipped to ensure everyone has a wonderful time.

A Glimpse into the Camper Life

Now, as the day winds down and we settle into the camper, it's time to prepare dinner. On tonight's menu: pasta with shrimp and, believe it or not, smoked sausage. A glass of syrup to sweeten the day is the cherry on top. We're all set for a delightful evening.

This concludes another eventful day on the road, and tomorrow, we'll begin our journey back home. But as the saying goes, it's not about the destination; it's about the joy of the journey.

So, until next time, my fellow adventurers. Stay curious, embrace the unknown, and savor every moment. The open road beckons, and we're ready to answer its call.

Dag!
