In order the escape the noise, busy-ness and general chaos of King's Day in the centre of Amsterdam, Matthijs and I went out biking.
We biked north of Amsterdam through Broek in Waterland to the 'island' of Marken and then back through Monnickendam.
The following are a few pictures taken in Marken, mostly taken around the fire tower (the white horse) on the coast:

| Marken on King's Day (as can be confirmed by all the people dressed in orange at the left of the pictures) |
