Drenthe is my favourite province in NL, so much history! You definitely need to return and visit Kamp Westerbork, the hunebedden (the largest is in Borger), the open air museum at Barger Compascuum, the Boomkroonpad... Maybe when the archaeological section at Drents Museum reopens and the bog bodies are back? Btw, I can't believe you did not know about Coevorden/Vancouver??
I didn't know they converted the old zoo into a park you can visit. That's so cool. I've been there many times as a child. Now I really need to go there someday and have a look.
Thank you guts for the positive fibe about Emmen. Net year there will be a new museum at rensenpark in the old biochron where sharks used to swim. Its still intact. Emmen is very old. Net time visite the hunebedden. Unesco site. 7 min. Walk from the trainstation.
@@janine2070 ik woon zelf niet meer in Emmen maar m’n ouders wel dus volgende keer als ik daar ben ga ik zekers eens op een vrijdag er heen. Ben toch nog altijd wel een beetje trotse emmenaar
Thank you for the video. It's rare that people visit Drenthe, let alone Emmen. My grandfather was an architect in the old zoo, and I am happy people can still experience the old zoo, albeit without a lot of the structures and of course the animals.
The bicycle storage in the beginning is springloaded (when not broken) for the upper levels: pulling the rail towards you at some point makes it tip over like a seesaw and you can lower the back towards ground level, with the bike standing upright at an angle. The diagonal chimneys might be to help with smoke getting pulled out of the chimney by the wind. By offsetting it, it ends up behind the top of the roof, where the wind can have a different draft than on the top of the roof. Next to this, some diagonally running chimneys also allowed placing a second fireplace in a different room if wanted.
Wow another great video, luckily Emmen is not so far for me so I'm definitely going to test the kroketten myself 👍. Thanks for testing it Michelle and Alex.
Here's a proud Emmener. So proud of the peace, quiet and friendly residents of Emmen. Too bad you had so little time, because Emmen has so much more to offer. For example, hunebedden (dolmens), or the "onderduikershol" (a hiding place in the forest where Jewish people in hiding during the WW2. And the Broken Circle, land art project by the American artist Robert Smithson. So maybe a 3rd visit to Emmen? 😅 It's great you have put Drenthe on the map in this positive way
Yeah Assen, the place where I was born and grew up. People from Drenthe are the most easy going people I know. I am not living in Drenthe anymore, but I feel that even after not living there for more than 45 year.
Drenthe is as beautiful as Limburg. I was blessed to have traveled all over the provinces, first with my Italian girlfriend named: Moto Guzzi California II and, later on, with my 5 series BMW I did it all over again but now showing my later Mother and my Uncle. I love traveling and now I do it from Las Vegas and, instead of provinces, it's states!
I'm glad you liked it in Assen. We also have a local market on wednesdays and saturdays. Everyone is in a good mood, and the smells are amazing (fresh bread being baked, cheese, etc). Hope you will be able to visit 'Het meisje van Yde' the next time you pay a visit to our cozy town
Fun fact: the meaning of Coevorden: "voorde" is a wadable place through a river, "Coe" means cow in old Dutch spelling. It's a place where cows can wade through the river. So it's basically the same name as "Oxford" in England.
@@buncharted it is a true fact, that a lot of people don't know. Even some people in Coevorden don't know this. And yes a true fact vancouver is named after Coevorden.
@@buncharted Many people from Coevorden also don't know that there was a Replica of the Coevorden Kasteel in Vancouver Canada, gifted because of our close connection. but was later moved to Fantasy Gardens in Richmond. Good Chinese Restaurant too, though it was better under the previous owner. it got sold about 3 years ago. previous owner ran it for at least 20-25 years, so i grew up with them. also worked there for a while. Glad you enjoyed it.
Wow, I know Drenthe as 1 of the most beautiful provinces of The Netherlands, because of the nature. The walking and biking in the forests, the "hunnebedden' scattered around, the satellites and heather fields in Dwingeloo. But non of that in this video! You gave me a new view of my country, thanks. And that krokettenplace in Emmen! Really? If that shop/cafe was in Amsterdam, there would be lines with tourists. It would go viral on TikTok. But it is just a little place in Emmen, with amazing food, but such a sad surrounding. The concrete tiles, the plastic chairs, the sad overhang of the building. It gives me a dilapidated 70's feeling. But I will put it on my to do list, for sure!
Last year I saw you guys exploring Assen, then later I found your YT by chance and immediately thought you guys looked familiar, then I found your Assen video and everything clicked, lol. Also if you really want a piece of Drenthe's history, I recommend going to Kamp Westerbork, it was a concentration camp during world war 2, it is a memorial site now and you get to see the large area that was the camp, besides that, the nature area is amazing as well, they even have the Westerbork Synthese Radio Telescoop which is vert close by the camp.
Zou het zo leuk gevonden hebben om jullie tegen te komen in het oude dierenpark. Ben er ook regelmatig te vinden. Nooit geweten dat die krokettenkunst in Emmen zit. Kan er jammer genoeg niet van genieten want gluten intolerant. Anders was ik er vast en zeker naartoe gegaan. Nou misschien tot ooit weer eens een keer ergens in Nederland. Leuk om jullie in het Verre Oosten te zien. Voor ons is het altijd een heel eind de andere kant op om naar musea en concerten etc te gaan.
You probably didn't know that Bartje appreciated good food too. His most famous saying was at the dinner table: "Ik bid nie voor bruun' boon' " (I don't pray/say grace for brown beans).
Oh, I live in Emmen and work near the Rensenpark. If I knew you were in Emmen, I would haven given you a tour. You haven't seen Emmen yet with only the Krokettenbar or the Rensenpark... Nice to have you here 😀
Hahaha, when you said that you were going to a different town after Assen. I was very surprised you said Coevorden, hardly anyone goes there as a tourist, I was born and raised there. I now live in the US, been here for 34 years now in Murfreesboro Tennessee. My brother lives in Coevorden, parents in Germany, only a stones throw away. Coevorden is a border town. My great grandmother used to work in het kasteel, my brother married there. There is rumoured that the is a tunnel from the castle to the Kota radja area where you went to eat. I will be back in Coevorden next year. Also, in the industrial park we have a US company called IAMS pet foods, so since you guys like pets it might be a place for employment if you ever decide to change careers 😂.
De tunnel loopt niet naar de nieuwe Kota Radja, maar naar Stadscafé Vancouver. En die zit dan weer tegenover het oude pand van Kota Radja. Ik heb jaren in stadscafé Vancouver gewerkt.
Thank you for including me (Bartje) in your video. I would have been so disappointed if you had left me out. Just some backgournd, my grandfather was from Smilde in Drenthe. We both are named Bartelt but as a kid, I was called Bartje and I just hated the dimunutive. At 75 years of age, I'm no OK with it. BTW, there's a little village (just a crossroads actually) with my family name, Eleveld, near Rolde. It's now administratively part of gem. Aa en Hunze.
One thing to note about the OV-fiets is that you do need a subscription for them. You can upload it onto your card after you ordered the service online.
The Drentse fiets vierdaagse had a part of the route going through the zoo before they went to the new location, but they only had that part accessible before the park opened. My dad and i cycled that year together, it was something special.
Come visit Assen during the third week (?) of July next year! Moto GP is in town then and the entire city is one big festival. Be warned: it might smell like a total open air urinal during the last day orso though lol.
That's an easy score.......how about a stroopwafelkroket ?? 🙂 Love the shirt by the way....."vet gezellig".....hahahaha.....😂😂👍> And Michelle's shirt is very gezellig too 😉
I think the 2 story bike rack at Rotterdam Blaak station is photographed by more tourists than the Markthal, haha. Everybody is amazed. They're not that hard to use, you just pull the whole thing and it rolls backward and will angle down so you can take the bike off.
haha yeah we ended up having to use it since the other bike on the bottom rack was broken it was super easy to use! but that’s not a surprise. all biking infrastructure here is amazing :)
My favourite kroket would be garnalenkroket. Bartje is famous for not praying for brown beans (ik bid niet veur bruune bonen), but there is enough delicious choices in Drenthe❤. Kota Radja named restaurants used to be beyond average quality nationwide.
Alex , your haircut just looks fine other then me, it will grow back. (Jelource). Thanks for another informative video from "'americans in my country" but thats ok.🌷🌷🌷
I live near Rotterdam, but I wish I had known about "KrokettenKunst" before my gastric bypass this summer, so I could sample most of their kroketten. If I go now I could maybe eat 2 or three of the bitterbal sized ones and I would be full for the afternoon.
Nice one both. Also nex time visit the smaller places nearby Assen like Een (litterly translated as one) or Norg and Roden. If you need a guide let me know :) Grtz Peter
The krokettenkunst kroketten are very good, but for an amazing Rendang kroket please go to the 'Swolsch Friethuis' in Zwolle, where they make them in house. Devine!
The Netherlands is also the founder of New Amsterdam (New York) ❤ Places like 'Harlem' and 'Brooklyn' in New York are derived from the places 'Haarlem' and 'Breukelen' in the Netherlands
Kip-Kerrie kroketten en Zuurkool krokettern bestaan al. De laatste zijn regelmatig te koop bij de Lidl, als ze weer eens een Nederlandse week (Ons en Pond) hebben.
omg, you were VERY close to where I am living and I see you visited a area that's very notorious for drugs and alcohol abusers. 30:35 That bridge is closed for a reason, the reason being that it's rather dangerous. This used to be the savanna of the zoo. It's a "On your own risk" area.
It's so funny to see where I live close to in from another perspective. I personally don't think the baggelhuizerplas is that impressive. better have a walk at the balloerveld when the heather is blooming for example 🙂
Nobody going to mention Kamp Westerbork eh. It may not be anything a tourist might be looking for but it certainly is an important part of Dutch (WW2) history.
Emmen is way more than the Rensenpark only... For example: close to the church ("Grote Kerk Emmen") across the entrance of the park, there was an very old burial site where a few years ago was an axcavation. (still have some pictures of that) Also close around Emmen are some neolithic grave-sites Dolmen (Hunnebedden in Dutch), and at least one very rare one, a 'Langgraf'. Emmen is also the town where Bluetooth was invented. Emmerhout (a neighborhood in Emmen, I live there) was the first 'Vinex' neighborhood of The Netherlands. And what about Nieuw Amsterdam?? The name-giver of New York...
You did not put your offloading the taking that bike out of the rack. Did you figure out that it was on a rail that you slide out, hold it while bringing its rear end to the floor and then easily ride the bike off of it? As the rail pivots, it's a lot easier than lifting the actual total weight of everything involved.

When Americans in the Netherlands say that Drenthe is far really away, you know the assimilation worked.
😂
Jullie zijn zo Nederlands geworden. Drenthe verweg terwijl in Amerika dit maar een kleine afstand zou zijn geweest. 😂😂😂
spieker op de kop
Thanks for visiting our kroketten factory. It was nice to meet you. Till we meet again
nice to meet you as well :)
Drenthe is my favourite province in NL, so much history! You definitely need to return and visit Kamp Westerbork, the hunebedden (the largest is in Borger), the open air museum at Barger Compascuum, the Boomkroonpad... Maybe when the archaeological section at Drents Museum reopens and the bog bodies are back?
Btw, I can't believe you did not know about Coevorden/Vancouver??
So much this. For Drenthe you really need to take a little more time.
Ja dat is wel interessant maar de ‘steden’ zijn verpauperd en saai. Zeker als je uit het westen komt.
I didn't know they converted the old zoo into a park you can visit. That's so cool. I've been there many times as a child. Now I really need to go there someday and have a look.
And also check out the new park!

You guys have to go to assen when the MotoGP - TT Assen is in town. The whole city changes it's amazing
Every last week(end) of June.
Wait it out in the coffeeshop? Now I know where the apetite for all that food comes from!😉

Yeah Assen, the place where I was born and grew up. People from Drenthe are the most easy going people I know. I am not living in Drenthe anymore, but I feel that even after not living there for more than 45 year.

So nice to see the two of you back in the centre of my hometown Assen. Really like watching you exploring the Netherlands. 🙂
I learned I know-or rather: knew-next to nothing about Drenthe. And I really have to visit this kroketten place!
Next time visit the most beautiful villages of Drenthe Dwingeloo (my hometown) and Orvelte!

Hi from Assen! Hope you visit Drenthe lot's of years to come. A lot to discover here and NL anyway. :D

stampot kroket is something a saw a few years ago...... mixesd with slow cooked beef.
Met de ov fiets door Drenthe. Integratie voltooid! 😂
Gotta love the matching green nails. Gorgeous.

I like how you swallow the 'n' in the word 'kroketten'. It's almost like we Drents say it. :)
Assen, Coevorden en Emmen. 🤭 Of all places..
And watch out for the wolf in the forest area. There is quite a lot to do about that in the Netherlands ;-).
Emmen is way more than the Rensenpark only... For example: close to the church ("Grote Kerk Emmen") across the entrance of the park, there was an very old burial site where a few years ago was an axcavation. (still have some pictures of that)

I miss the nature. Maybe you guys can visit Dwingelderveld and Drents-Friese Wold next time.
it'll be easier when we eventually get our drivers licenses here :)
