Rotter. Damn.

After the tourist saturation and relentlessness of Amsterdam,Rotterdam feels more spacious and laid back, albeit with an underlying seriousness. in many ways it reminds me of Osaka. having been demolished during WW2,it's full of quite brutalist modernist architecture, and seems to have a decent amount of cultural things going on to give it an important buzz.

Gareth and I checked into the hotel and found a great bar that appeared to serve the most magnificent sandwiches ever large, full and well presented. Before long the rest of the consortium arrived tired and victorious having competed the 70+km ride down. some food and beers later it was time for an early night.
