We left Bruges and headed towards Rotterdam where our ferry was leaving in the evening. Rather than just use the motorway we went through the Westerscheldetunnel, a 6.6km toll tunnel which takes you between Ellewoutsdijk and Terneuzen. It is the longest tunnel for highway traffic in the Netherlands.
The peninsulas and islands on this route have beaches on the north sea coast which we wanted to stop and walk on. The weather wasn't too great however.
After crossing the various bridges we got to Rotterdam, where we did some last shopping before catching the ferry.
We went to KFC for lunch, and made some sandwiches for later.
We had to take Oscar to the P&O offices for pet check-in, but that all went smoothly and we were on board the boat by 6pm for the 8.30pm departure.
We had showers on board and went on deck for a drink as we were departing. Back at the cabin, by the time we'd had something to eat it was quite late, so we went to bed.
