The beers must have been strong last night as we set off 10 miles in the wrong direction! After the scenic detour we headed up the coast to Marken, Volendam and Edam. The quaint villages are the real Holland compared to the craziness of Amsterdam.
We have been so lucky with the weather, not a drop of rain and glorious sunshine all day long (albeit pretty unbearable at times).
After sitting enjoy a coffee and beer in the sun we realised that we still had a fair way back to cycle to catch the ferry. So the Williams steam train flew across the country clocking in 62 miles!
Sailing back on the ferry to home soil, reminiscing on an incredible week!

These cycling shoes in Holland are not up to much!
David found a BRIElliant girl with a flowery bike. But she said she was feta and too mature for him

Like the way your little ‘tootle around’ to Edam clocked up a mere 62 miles! You guys should be on commission for the European Tourist Board…..your photos have made everywhere look stunning. I am off to tour Holland next year, but on 4 wheels, not 2!! Well done, a brilliant achievement and obviously so much fun. The Davers xxx
