I don’t know what I expected but Edam is the quintessential dutch country town. As I left the bus station I enter the town and immediately faced with a small canal and little row houses. It is beautiful here, really it’s so ideal it’s a bit wild that it exists.
I’m staying in the attic loft of a music shop. From my window I face a square and another canal way through town.
After a quick lunch/dinner I went for a long walk past the harbor and along a dyke that was built for the Markermeer, a kind of semi saltwater inlet.
I’m excited to explore this small town and the towns next door. I’ll be taking a bike out today to do just that.
