So what actually happened :-
Day 1 (Tuesday 23 April 2019) so that’s Dover, Dunkirk, Bruges, and finally Rotterdam for the night, I have sampled Flemish style beef stew and a caramel Belgium waffle in Bruges, while Yvonne tested the Belgian style of lasagna
Day 2 (Wednesday 24 April 2019) Rotterdam to Amsterdam via Keukenhof, seen a helicopter, see a flower show, had a Dutch stroopwaffle, drove under Schiphol airport, seen a brain car! Had some BBQ ribs at the hard rock, got soaked walking back to the hotel
Day 3 (Thursday 25 April 2019) walked into #amsterdam to see the #annefrankhouse and partake in a walking tour of the red light district, and got caught in a massive downpour in the middle of the day
Day 4 (Friday 26 April 2019) another walk into central #amsterdam, today we went to the MoCo museum for the #banksy exhibition then onto a around the city canal boat tour
Day 5 (Saturday 27 April 2019) walked into central #amsterdam today for #kingsday lots of walking, lots of boat parties, lots of music, we found the #harekrishna parade, and I had a mixed grill with venison for first time
Day 6 (Sunday 28 April 2019) relaxing day took a drive to the military museum at #soesterberg and then chilled back at the hotel before dinner in the hotel restaurant
Day 7 (Monday 29 April 2019) Left Amsterdam for the short drive to #arnhem, then a few hours walking through Arnhem town and to the #johnfrostbridge, and for lunch we had 1/2 french land chicken, well that’s what Google translate said it was …
Day 8 (Tuesday 30 April 2019) Drove from #arnhem to Nude via a #jumbo supermarket, then on to #antwerp for lunch at the #hardrock before driving to #calais to catch the ferry back to the UK
