The homeward journey to wet Holland

Contrary to yesterday, it is not only very warm, but also very sunny. The car is almost packed and the end of our holiday coming near. We linger a bit since we would rather stay longer, but we have no choice but to return home.


Within an hour we leave Denmark and at noon we have a last picknick in Germany, enjoying the warmth of the sun.
But then we approach the border of the Netherlands: rain starts to fall from the clouds that have been gathering for the last hour, the temperature is dropping fast. All those thousands of kilometers driving southwards haven't brought us any closer to better weather. But we don't care: we have made a fantastic journey, Norway being the best part of it (except for the prices). The scenic beauty and the alternation of sceneries in Norway were one of the best things we have ever seen. Who knows, maybe we go back someday... after we first have visited the rest of the world.
