We say goodbye to Rotterdam after another quiet night on the canal. Before we leave we walk back up into the Schiedam to get some bread from a little Turkish Bakery and a few things from the supermarket which included a case of Heinekin. During our travels this year I have rarely see more than a six pack on special but this little supermarket has one of the worlds best beers on special for โฌ11 a case (24).
Our next overnight stop is planned for Delft only 20 kilometres to the north. It has no aire but a parking spot comes up in our database and we soon arrive. It’s roadside parking and it will be difficult to get the Hymer even close to level. As a general rule we try and overnight the Hymer as close to level as possible. Added to that there’s an odd looking fellow hanging about. We stay a while a have breakfast and a coffee. The odd fellow is still wandering about, so we decide Delft will wait till another time and we continue north to Amsterdam.
……………day 2.
……………day 3
The weather has changed again as we exit, with some light misty rain in the air. However it soon clears again and we make our way back to the ferry and the Hymer for a late lunch. We are in our 5th week on the road now, the weather has been unstable every day. If the sun appears it gets warm very quickly but it will turn and become cool again an hour later. Good for sleeping at night, but you need to carry a jacket everyday.
