Celebrating The Hague Hash’s1800th...

After Ashlynn’s race, Jimmy and I caught a train to Bodegraven for a special hash event. The weather was perfect and the scenery lovely as we ran through the middle of the market in the center of town before heading to the fields full of sheep...
....and cows (and cow patties).
The fields were separated by canals, which we crossed via a series of unusual bridges such as this one shaped like a ladder.
Eventually, we looped back into town, ran along the main canal and ended in a parking lot for down-downs.
Then we walked down the street to the Brouwerij de Molen, which is a brewery inside a windmill.
We had a lecture about the old-fashioned brewing process and tasted several beers. Then we crossed the road to see the modern facilities where the hand-crafted beers are now brewed. Lastly, we went back to the windmill for dinner, which was in a lovely setting, but the food was disappointing.
