Legal Pilgrimage (The Hague, Netherlands)

Stellplatz: Delftse Hout

We nearly made it. 

We had cycled 40km around The Hague without getting wet once but 1,5km from reaching home the heavens opened up and that was it. Sopping wet.

But back-tracking a bit: we departed Amsterdam City Camp this morning to drive 75km to Delft which lies between The Hague and Rotterdam. The whole way a storm was over us with torrential rain, strong winds and mild chaos on the road and of course the GPS trying to route us down a pedestrian walkway.... 

So far this Stellplatz is the most expensive one we have visited -35 Euro / night BUT it is linked to a proper campsite and thus has laundry facilities. Bedding, sheets, towels, clothing all had a good wash and we're good to go again for another two weeks.

Once the heavens had cleared, onto the bikes we climbed and headed for the Legal Pilgrimage - visiting the International Criminal Court and of course the Peace Palace which houses the International Court of Justice. 

One aspect I'm really enjoying is that all museums / visitor centres we have visited so far have audio devices which you can use to access additional information - for  example the Peace Palace information centre wasn't big (think elongate classroom) but we easily could have spent an hour inside.... Unfortunately we slipped in 20 min before closing time

So that was that - Den Haag is done!
