Day 18

Day 18 started in glorious sunshine and ended the same way!

Not many miles today and what we did were mainly motorway miles, so we took it easy. Stops were made for fuel, on the djik by the Zuiderzee and at a cheese factory. We had scheduled another fuel stop but strangely, the pumps were on one side of the road, the pay kiosk on the other. Not sure how that was supposed to work, so we moved on. Then the next was on the wrong side of the dual carriageway.Thanks Tomtom.We'll make an early stop tomorrow.

We've quite a few miles to go tomorrow and a deadline to hit, the eurotunnel crossing back to blighty, so I'll have to keep my eye on timings, seeing we have a few stops planned.

We made the most of the few hours we had in Amsterdam, taking a tram to Centraal Station and then walking up to the flower market. By the time we'd had a couple of beers and some KFC dinner, it was almost Knutr's bedtime, so we had a very brief scout around the red light district before heading back. Knutr was happy to see one girl in the window but we may as well have not bothered. Probably too early for them. We saw more in the street in Oslo!

So, our last day of the tour begins tomorrow. It's not clear what the weather will do just yet but we'll be ready for rain if it comes. All in all though, we've been pretty fortunate with the weather.

Till tomorrow then, I'll leave you with the sun setting over Amsterdam and for the last time on the Wild Hogs Scaninavian Tour.
