This morning we woke up a little tired after a good last night with the four of us. Our cars were in front of the ferry so we got of very quick and then it was the german autobahn for the next 400 km. The weather expressed our feelings quite well, grey and rainy. Even after a month on the road it felt still to early to go home again, even though I did long for my own bed and sofa. But furthermore the trip may have lasted much longer for me.
Trucks holding up traffic on the opposite direction
But okay, it really was time to go home, so we put the music on hard and pushed the accelerator to the floor and went a stunning 80 km p/h. We had a strong headwind but some nice trucks helped us again today. Otherwise it would have taken even longer to get home. At one off the last petrol station before Oldenzaal we said goodbye to Gert-jan after traveling together for a month, and to Lenneke who joint us for the last two weeks. It felt strange to go separate ways after driving together al these weeks. But the last 200 km we had to drive alone.
Driving into the Netherlands was directly notable by the traffic jams. Weather got even worse and the gearbox was making more and more noise, so getting home was challenging, but we made it. Around 18:30 we parked the car in front of our house after 11320 km on the counter of the car
At the start
After arriving home safe
According to Polarsteps we did 11220 km, ans adding up al the km from the maps gives a total of 10.399 km.
So I keep it at 11.000 km in total, not bad in four weeks.
All what is left now is a lot of laundry and a car that needs some LCA.
