Some may continue on in the direction of Mühlhouse for the Swiss International weekend, others may continue their holidays in another fashion and some will be returning home. If you travel the route through Rotterdam-Hull, be aware that it is a bit tight as the ferry leaves Rotterdam at 21:00 and you have to be there about 1,5 hour in advance. Hoek van Holland-Harwich is easier as it will leave around 23:00.

The trip from the lunch restaurant on Sunday to Rotterdam/Hoek van Holland will probably be around 3,5 hours at a decent pace. To Calais/Duinkerken it may be around a 4,5 hours drive.

 

Maps and route description of the scenic drives will be provided as usual but it is strongly advised to bring an up-to-date TomTom, Garmin or similar sat-nav if you want to deviate from the route or want to visit some special places. You want to be in time for the lunches at 13:00 on Saturday and Sunday.

 

We may visit some POI on the Saturday or Sunday.
