Cycling and Windmill Day

Melbourne, Australia

That can only be the Netherlands
Every second Saturday in May this event is held,
stimulating the Dutch to get on their bikes and visit Windmills.
Of course I'm not near any windmill like this one portrayed.
I took this picture of a Dutch calendar

What a good idea Mieke. I have a few Dutch friends who live in the Netherlands, and I love seeing their photos - we met on a photo site...
