Yerseke

How I love The Netherlands!
We went on a daytrip to Yerseke, a little port town.
We walked along the dam and saw how a few people were wandering around the water with a bucket in their hands. We asked what they were looking for and they were picking little snails from the rocks. These snails are a real treat when you cook them with celery, pepper and chilli oil. It's like the snails at the carnival, but even better.
Of course we didn't have a bucket with us, but we did have a bowl for the dog's water.
I climbed down together with my dad and managed to get the bowl full of snails. Yumyum. Accidentally enough, we found some oysters too!
And a crab who wasn't happy with us investigating him.

Once we got home, we made sure the snails and oysters were clean.
Fun, great and very yummy catch! When you've plucked these treats yourself, they taste even better!
