We motored for the next couple of days through the canals, past countryside which was often a couple of metres below the level of the canal …
… past
industrial sites and pretty residential areas …
Sometimes
the industrial and residential bits were almost cheek by jowl and sometimes we
felt we were almost in people’s back gardens!
Past bulb
fields …
… the
city of Haarlem …
… and
windmills – old and new style – it was ‘Windmill Day’ in Holland, so they
were all actually turning …
… and
past the back of Amsterdam’s central station and into Sixhaven Marina. It’s incredibly convenient for the city
centre – a few minutes on a free ferry which runs every 6 minutes throughout
the day and night.
