Gas Street

Just back from a quick trip to Holland to see the bulb fields. We did a last minute booking and discovered it was a mini-cruise (as if we need a cruise!) We travelled by coach to Amsterdam. Visited the Keukenhof the next morning, meeting the boat at Utrecht. From there we sailed to Dortrecht through a humungus lock which lifted us all of 6". Day three saw us sailing to Rotterdam and from there we went by bus to Delft to the ceramics museum and a boat trip through the canal system, then it was back to the boat at Utrecht and a cruise back to Amsterdam.

We have had 2 days back on the boat to wash everything and then re-pack for the Grande Tour to Moscow and St Petersburg. More of that later....
