A Combination Bell/Nature Museum

I've known about this bell museum for quite some time. Marijke's mother visited it years ago and sent her a postcard that she's used as a bookmark all this time. So, when Tante Magda suggested we drive there one day, I was very excited.













TM got to try out handbells for the first time here - it's a rare thing in Holland to find a bell choir. There's one affiliated with the museum (3 octaves) and only one or two others in the whole country. One lit-up map shows where all the church or town steeple bells are located.






What we didn't expect is to find a nature museum at the same time! (And a delightful bar where we took two breaks - for coffee first and then lunch!) Thanks SO much, TM - I LOVED the gardens and playing the foot-bells, too after a little demonstration. - Teddy
