MERCY GOES SHOPPING
MERCY DOES SOME DISHES.Texel, North Holland.
Well , I am now in Texel,one of the 7 islands north of the Netherlands, this one is north of Den Helder. Remember the Texel breed of sheep? This is where these sheep are from.
I am on that island now.
I stayed with Mercy first and after a terrible night on a make- shift wobbly narrow stretcher, and not being able to get to sleep till 3 am, and not only fighting with my pillow but also the bed and bedding,with lots of night sweats, I woke up feeling exhausted .
Then I remembered a nice lady whom I met in the train the previous day, who was on her way to Texel,(it's very close to Den Helder), she told me she was staying in a hostel” STAY OKAY”.
I remembered that, and explained to Mercy I needed a good sleep. I did a quick search on the internet and then booked for 2 nights. She didn’t mind and decided to come with me just for the day, and me for 2 nights. The ferry was big but the actual crossing is only 20 minutes.

The wide open spaces, slightly rolling hills, and tomorrow I am hiring a bicycle.
Mercy spent the day with me and we did some walking through the town together( Den Burg)
I took some photos and oh yes, the room I am in is a dorm of 6, but only one other lady is there, a Korean lady. It is actually a dorm for ladies only. It is a brand new building, and for the price is breakfast and dinner included( 39.- pp ) It is so new it has this “ hospital" look, very clean and shiny, but hey, if you want a good bed. Mercy apologized for my bad sleep but there is really no room, and I hate it when I can’t sleep. I am coming to her place on Monday but maybe even Tuesday now as I need to rest and possibly ned 2 days to see this island.? I only brought the backpack and a plastic bag with a few clothes. We'll see.
OK, got to go now, dinner is ready.
More tomorrow night.
OK just back from dinner. Hey Pa, this place reminds me of the place in Bouleri, France.
A great place for kids and meals included. Basic meals but good and all you need.
This island is, (so far from what I have seen),very beautiful. But tomorrow I will see more so I will tell you more tomorrow. ( and get to the beach)
Bye for now. Marianne.
