Our last day (sob). The campsite started emptying from 6am, since this weekend is the last of the Dutch main holiday. We did a little packing and tidying around in the van, and spent most of the morning reading.

Lunchtime was E&J round for aperitifs, but we’re finding that rather than a quick drink before lunch, these are now becoming lunchtime drinks, with some food afterwards. Never mind.

During the afternoon, we read some more, and packed a few more bits and pieces ready for the morning.

After tea, we were invited round to Heather and Mike’s rented mobile home for ‘going home’ drinks. However, after a little while, the clouds came rolling in again, and thunder and lightning meant we had to beat a hasty retreat to the van to shut up the roof vents and windows. Afterwards, we went round to E&J, where we sat with their campsite neighbours Will & Barradena (sp?), who had just arrived. We sat chatting and having sips of wine until it was time for us to say goodnight, as we had an early start in the morning.
