We left Spa Belgium and meandered northwest, then northeast, then west and then southwest along the Netherlands/Belgium/French coasts of the North Sea. It's been a lazy, hazy time in which our schedule was loose and our destinations blurry. We rolled through the country sides of Belgium, a bit of Germany, the Netherlands and eventually France. We took in the rolling hills and farms of northern Belgium, the unexpected dense forests of the Netherlands, the sand dunes along the North Sea, and the juxtaposition of wind mills with oil tankers in Rotterdam. Along the way we got gobbled up in the crush of Dutch freeway traffic, got lost in one of the world's largest ports, Rotterdam, and spent time in out-of-the-way Dutch beach towns.
