Day 8 - Holiday in Harlingen

I say holiday, we are of course resting and recouperating ready for the next hardcore and gruelling leg of our adventurous and epic journey. Still it was lovely to have a day off.

We slept in, had a relaxed breakfast, did our washing (Sylv made a super washing line) and then headed in to town.

We climbed over the dyke and wandered down the beach, stopping for hot drink and to take in the view. Loads of sailing boats and sea kayakers as well as families playing with kites on the beach. THey sure know how to enjoy being outdoors here.

Harlingen is a beautiful port town, with loads of amazing boats coming and going. The town intself looks like a mini Amsterdam and all the houses look like they were once taller houses that have now been bashed into the ground.

We strolled around at snails pace due to our dore legs, got a yummy cake each and headed back to the campsite. I really wanted to go on a boat trip but there weren't any running and although I considered just jumping on a passing oné I did want to be home in time for tea.

So tonight we're having fajitas and maybe a game of mini cards, then tomorrow we hit the road again.

0 miles today.
