Last day in Holland


we went to Naaldwijk


always nice here


AH grocery stores were hacked, so some empty shelves


next stop, the beach


a favourite place


so many more people in the Netherlands now have a motorhome
but some of the campgrounds are very boring


drive past the ferry to the UK


last evening, play games


drive to Schophol, so many birds in the air close to the airport


dropped of our rental, we really like the car 
a Toyota Carola


ready to go home


the trees around Toronto were at peak beauty
