Stoomtram!

The museum pass in the Netherlands is one of the best bargains on earth. It’s good for a month, and it gives you free entry to all kinds of museums. In this case, it was our ticket on the steam train from Hoorn to Medemblik.

We took the train from Hoorn to Medemblik, then returned after a short layover. The museum runs several steam locomotives (or trams) and makes stops along the way at restored train stations. It was great fun!

Our layover gave us time for a visit to the Bakkerijmuseum in Medemblik. This is a delightful place, with lots of fun and educational demonstrations of baking and candy making. Best of all, they make the best Gevulde Koek and Koffie!
