My city, Recife, here in Northeast Brazil, was Dutch for 24 years, ruled by an exceptional personage on behalf of the West India Company, John Maurice, Prince of Nassau-Siegen. That was in the 17th century, from 1620 to 1654. These were years that marked our history. So one of my dreams was to visit Amsterdam, I managed to do that four times!
Got up early (difficult...), hoping for a nice sunrise. But it didn't work out; So I experimented with some filters
Often I would cycle this trail on weekend and some weekdays. It is a long cycling trail around the Netherlands chores. It is all paved trail in the dune that separate the Northern Sea from the Land. These are man-made dunes and the trails help the jokers, the walkers and the cyclists do their exercise. Along the ride on this trail, there is the comfort of seeing the Northern Sea and some of the most beautiful scenery and sun sets. Living in the Netherland for 3 years, it was never boring. The people, the culture and the nature add more beauty to this beautiful place. I was so impressed to the point it is a stop destination on my travels.
