Day 7
Early rise this morning, it was still dark outside when we rose. We were back at the Heidenauer Hof hotel in Heidenau and it felt just like home. Our room was once again in the park building but this time on the ground floor with patio doors opening into the wooded area.

We went over to breakfast and although we were here three days ago it had undergone a transformation. Christmas had arrived, and its still November!!

After breakfast we drove down the village and filled up with diesel and had a last drive around before leaving. It was very foggy morning and a we drove past a fiels we saw in the mist about a dozen very large, long legged birds grazing. We had no idea what they were but they were about three feet tall.

We then headed off towards Amsterdam where we were to board our ferry at the port at 3.00pm. Once again we hit traffic problems when we were stopped due to an accident ahead. This time we were able to get off the motorway and head across country towards the dutch border. Suddenly it was a different ride, the countryside was great and what struck me was how clean a country Germany is. Then when we crossed the border into Holland it was more of the same which made us think that our earlier comments on our arrival in Holland were a little unfair.

| We even saw a proper windmill |
Eventually we arrived at the port and the ferry was waiting for us. We checked in and waited in line patiently to board.

We booked into our Commodor cabin for our homeward journey. It was a great improvement on the cabin we had coming over.

So that's almost it. This week has flown by but it has been really enjoyable. It's the last leg tomorrow, the journey back to Newport from Newcastle.
