I was supposed to be in Madrid, but ended up in Amsterdam! I had plans for Retiro Park in Madrid, but I was able to pivot and did 3 miles in Amstel Park in Amsterdam instead.

| I think this is the one of the only windmills actually in the city of Amsterdam |
There was a big tour bus here and we had to wait for them to leave to get our photos.

Then back home in Seattle, I did 2 miles on the Cedar River Trail in Renton. This is another trek that I do most every year as it is so easy. It is a nice paved path that starts from the southern end of Lake Washington by the Renton Boeing Factories.

So far I have hiked a total of 20 miles and we have raised $1010, so I have already exceeded my fund raising goal!! Thanks so much to Becky Henry, Fred and Nancy Woods (who have donated twice!!) and Christine Franke for their recent donations that put me over the top. If you send me a check or cash, it will take a few days for it to show up on the WTA website, but rest assured when I do get your donations I try to immediately send a thank you so that you know I got it.
You can send Cash or Check made out to WTA to Amanda Arkebauer PO Box 16131, Seattle, WA 98116 or visit the fundraising website https://give.wta.org/fundraiser/6481756
