Route So Far
Travelogue
We left our campsite and cycled along route EV12 (The North Sea Route) a whole 4 km to the ferry port at Hook of Holland. Having checked we could find the place and with over three hours to kill, we relocated to the nearby centre of the town, bought some food for the seven hour crossing, found a bench to sit on and.... Waited.
People watching passed the time. There really wasn't much else to do.
Eventually it was time to check in for our ferry. We cycled back to the port, passed immediately through passport control and straight onto the ferry. The two bikes are lashed to metal bars which will hopefully ensure they don't move around during the voyage. M1 and M2 found seats not far from the coffee bar and have settled in with books and music to pass the time.
Unfortunately, our seats were not quite far enough from the children's play area and so it was not the most peaceful of crossings, but we made it.
We arrived in Harwich at about 20:15, disembarked and cycled a mere 5 km to the Airbnb property we're staying in tonight.
That's it for today!
