Welcome spring...almost!

After a long dark winter, we now welcome with open arms spring!

The first snowdrops have been spotted, international birdwatchers have come to the island to admire the unusual Spectacled Eider Duck (at the Iron Cape).

We have having the whole garden fenced off with beautiful rural cattle fence - super nice for dogs and small children at Paal 91 Texel.

We are ready for another season, even though there is still plenty to do and improve on the cottage.

Tips for Texel in the quiet, fine early spring:

• Cape North is open again 7 days a week. Conviviality within walking distance!
• Tip for vegetarians and vegans: Restaurant Witlof in Den Burg: super tasty and good!
• The lambs are born as of now (February), but remain in the stable due to the cold.
• Lovely walk through the dunes to the sea, with stunning views of sea and inland at the top of a huge high dune: park and walk from De Bleekersvallei (De Koog).
• Wellness at Boutique Hotel Texel (also for non-hotel guests): small but tremendously nice and close by!
• The cosiest restaurants where Texans like to eat and meet: The 12 Balcken and The Smulpot in Den Burg and 'T Cafeetje in Oosterend.
• And we could go on like this for a while :-). In short: the season starts again and we are looking forward to it: please join (us), and enjoy the island and our cottage Paal 91!

With friendly island greetings, Anne and Jet | Paal 91 Texel
