The little accident in the woods
Today we are making a day of it. We are going hiking in the woods near Appelscha. We have brought a picnic lunch and I have it all packed in my handy backpack.
The drive towards Appelscha is pleasant. No heavy traffic and the weather is very nice.
We talk about our future retirement that is around the corner for both of us. I have set up a new business involving MLM (Multi Level Marketing) and ownership of parts of a newly built metaverse. This is where people can get immersive experiences doing business, shopping and also play games to earn money. We are doing very well so there is a good chance we can both even retire a little earlier than planned.
We have big travel plans for that time. We for instance want to visit New Zealand and we really only want to do that if we can fly business class. Otherwise we think it's too long a journey to sit cramped up in coach.
We arrive at the parking lot near the Appelscha woods and sand dunes. It is very quiet and the weather is ideal for a hike and picnic. I put a little blanket in my backpack as well, close the car and off we go.
We start out in the first part of the woods with pine trees but soon the surroundings open up to reveal the large sand dunes where Appelscha's Kale Duinen are famous for. It has been a while but I have been hiking here very often when I used to live very close to all of this. I still love it.
