Next, we drove to Witmarsum. This is the home town on Menno Simons. We saw the church where he was first a Priest. Then, we drove out to the place where there is a monument indicting his burial site and his first church.
After Witmarsum we visited Pingium. This is the place of the Hidden Church location. Unfortunately, there was no one there to show us inside.
After our visits to these locations, we traveled over the dike which separates the North Sea from the Zuider Zee. The dike is 22 miles long. We saw bikers heading north into a strong head wind. In 1988, we biked across the dike, but had a nice tailwind.
We spent the night at Bergen-On-The-Sea. It was very cool, in fact, cold as you can tell from the photo.
