Another great sail across the Markermeer, to another lovely old town, but this one was a bit different as it was Hoorn Festival weekend. The whole town was out partying, different bands were playing all around the town in different squares. Something for everyone from brass to heavy metal, so we decided to stay and soak up the atmosphere. Sunday was also the day of the British Grand Prix, so Chris went all round Hoorn trying to find a bar that was showing it! The Dutch are not really into motor racing! Eventually, he found a bar that had a TV that was not on and persuaded the lady to switch on the grand prix. Shame about the result.
