Background: The Kingdom of the Netherlands was formed in 1815. In 1830 Belgium seceded and formed a separate kingdom. The Netherlands remained neutral in World War I, but suffered invasion and occupation by Germany in World War II. A modern, industrialized nation, the Netherlands is also a large exporter of agricultural products. The country was a founding member of NATO and the EEC (now the EU), and participated in the introduction of the euro in 1999.

Last stop, the home stretch. I arrived in Amsterdam, and it was cold! And rainy, what terrible weather. I ended up buying a jacket since I had mailed mine back when I was in Hong Kong. I spent a couple days in Amsterdam looking around before Opa, Uncle Andy and Steven arrived. The hostel I stayed at, Inner Amsterdam, was not that great. Don't stay there. There is mice in the room and it has bug beds! Not a good way to start your trip in Holland. There were several guys from Britain in the dorm I was in and we [View Full Entry]

Tag 79: Zebrugge - Schouwen, 87.74 km, Fahrzeit 5:10, Durchschn. 16.95 km/h, Gesamtstrecke 3934 km Mittags erreicht die Fähre Zeebrugge in Belgien. Das Wetter ist stark bewölkt, immer wieder regnet es. Ich habe keine Karten für Belgien, was nicht so das Problem ist, da ich mich gerade mal 20 Kilometer südlich der holländischen Grenze befinde. Für den holländischen Teil der NSCR habe ich das entsprechende BikeLine-Buch. Leider fängt das erst in Rotterdam an, und das ist noch anderthalb Tagesreisen entfernt. Ich folge der holländischen Radroute "LF 1b", und die ist so gut ausgeschilder [View Full Entry]

Monday we went to Neeltje Jans. We went there by bus. We had to be at school very early. 7.30 am. The trip took 2 hours. First we saw a movie about the Delta Project. The movie was long and a bit boring. Then we got a tour through the park. Then we got free time in the park. That was fun. In the park were seales. They were cute. There was also a fun rollercoaster kind of thing, it was really cool. You could go down a slide on a little boat. We also got fries, that was delicious. mmmmmmmmm. [View Full Entry]

Part 4 of 4 in the Netherlands. I've been in this country for 6 weeks and was only in southeast Asia for 5- geographically that makes very little sense. I'm still on the bike, I rode from Utrecht to Den Haag. During my 5 hour ordeal it poured with rain about 10 times. I took shelter in all sorts of places from people's front porches, company workshops and shops to under trees, but I got there eventually . I took a little detour through the city of Leiden where I had a bit of a look around and recall purchasing [View Full Entry]

Numerous trips from Sheppy on the Olau Line, as a teenager and young adult. Booze cruises I'm ashamed to say; and my first hen night. I'm such a party animal that I was in bed and sober first that night!! [View Full Entry]
