Goodbye Netherlands, Bonjour/Hi/Gutentag Belgium! Stupid Belgium with too many languages! We left the Netherlands and drove about 45 minutes before we were in Belgium. We nearly missed it. They don't make a big deal of it at all. Just one solitary sign saying Belgie. The roads aren't as good though. I quickly noticed that. I'd expressed to Becci already how smooth Hollands roads are and how I think Lynn was built for that type of drive. Belgium's a little course...

The drive from Utrecht to Lathum was a little longer than we'd expected but it was well worth it in the end. The Camperstop was on the edge of a marina overlooking the boats. This one was €8.50 a night but there were showers and toilets we could use. There's only about 6 spots to park in, but only three vans were there and we managed to grab the end space so we had our own little garden area between the van and some bushes. We immediately got out the table and ...

It's around an hour drive from Amsterdam to Utrecht and once we got there we headed into town first to find a supermarket so we could grab some bread and some beers (we hadn't had one since we arrived and it didn't feel right). we parked up after getting seriously lost. we tried to find the tourist office and got even more lost but that was kinda the best bit. Utrecht is beautiful. Loads of hidden bars under bridges along the canals. It was cool. So when we found...

We left the cheese farm all full of Gouda and headed straight for Amsterdam. We found parking wasn't that easy to find and ended up parking near the Heineken brewery museum.

So we walked for a bit, and got a little lost, but made our way to the centre where there's a big grubby looking palace. We stumbled into the red light district, which, funny as it is at night...

Monday morning and we woke up at the campsite near the hook. The plan was to head for Amsterdam and go from there. The plan didn't happen. When we checked the time it was nearly 2pm and we were still bathing on the beach reading our books. Oops. Well not really oops, this is how we expected it to go. We moseyed back to the camp and met a crazily cute baby goat along the way. We didn't have anything to feed it with but it was happy to chew my finger. Awesome. We d...
