Slept in

When we checked into our Leiden hotel, the clerk was kind enough to extend our check-out time to 10 am. We finally heard the housekeepers literally banging on our door at 11. We'd slept for close to 13 hours, not counting the 2 am - 3 am wake up call as the bars closed and patrons were dumped out onto the street in front of our hotel.

Off we cycled without breakfast (slept through that as well), to The Haag via the beach resort of Scheveningen and then on to Delft for the night. Wonderful stop for lunch in Wassenaar along the route. To top it off, there was no getting lost today!!!!

The city scapes and the villages, towns and cities that we've cycled through are stunningly beautiful. The people that we've met, have all been kind & generous. (Well, there is the exception of the old waiter in the Indonesian restaurant where we had dinner this evening. He had gone out of his way to show us how you should eat Indonesian food, then he spotted J eating her dinner in a different way. All we need to say is that he was not amused ...).

No sun tans for us, although wind burns might redden the cheeks. Tomorrow it looks like we could have some rain on the ride to Gouda.

Tot ziens ...
