The last few days have made me realise the Netherlands isn't that large. My daily distance has only been averaging 60-70km and yet I find myself in Rotterdam at the end of the trip.
Cycling in the Netherlands is very enjoyable with flat terrain and excellent infrastructure. I'm slightly disappointed it's almost over.
I haven't made the same mistake as last year where I booked a hotel in Rotterdam only to discover there was nowhere to secure my bike. This forced me to leave it at the main railway station along with hundreds of other bikes.
Tonight's hotel website claimed to have bicycle storage. It turned out to be a small open common user space behind the hotel.
The bike is chained to the railing and anything of value has been removed. I think it will be safe as there are thousands of other easier bikes to steal in the city.
This afternoon I went for a walk down to the waterfront. Some interesting boats in a small harbour
I can't make up my mind if this is a waterslide or some type of viewing platform
Another surprise. A cruise ship!
I couldn't see the reason behind the harbour boat squirting water. Unless they were testing the system.

Tom your 'water slide' is apparently the FENIX art museum, it's all about migration according to their website (fenix{dot}nl{slash}en{slash})
Kevin. Thanks for the information. Now it's not a water slide I'm guessing a spiral walking ramp to a viewing platform.
