so, after I was making plans to head south, I got online and was chatting to my brother when he suggested I visit his wife's sister, Grainne in Utrecht, so change direction and go north of a bit.
Arrived in the afternoon after a nice journey with a few detours,
one to see the town where the third stage of the TdF is finishing, Valkenburg. It was just down the road from my campsite.
Two when I passed by a windmill and decided I had to get a picture of it...
Three when I decided to stop for Lunch and the nearest town was s'Hertogenbosch. Nice to just pull off, drive straight into the centre of town and have a walk around.
So, joined Grainne for dinner and slept over.
Was leaving this morning, according to plan, only problem was that I hadn't made a plan for the day yet. So I stayed. Nice day for it. Had a lovely brunch and then decided to see one of the city's most spectacular monuments, the Dom Tower,
over 110 m high and you get to walk almost to the top. So, with a great weather day I decided that it had to be done. Great view.
That's all for the last two days. Good night!

Sheesh Kev. Makes me think of our Zim trip. 110m happens to be the height of the Vic falls. Hope you didn't also try and jump off the tower. Have a blast dude and ride safely. Oh ja, that isn't Joburg.....
