Holland - Belgium River Cruise - Part 5

An Afternoon In Middelburg

Saturday - April 4th 2015

We slept in today and had a late breakfast, because the ship didn't arrive in Middelburg before the early afternoon. So we watched the landscape passing by and around noon we had lunch. Then after the ship docked, we left MS Inspire and visited the lovely little Durch city.

From the harbour it was just a short walk into the city center. First we had a cup of coffee while enjoying the lovely weather and then we did some sightseeing. There wasn't a lot to see, since the city isn't very big, but Middelburg offers some nice old buildings, like the Town Hall or the church. Claudia bought some spices and a beautiful old plate from a flea market and later we had some glasses of beer in a pub. Then it was already time to return to the ship.

When we arrived at the ship, they served some snacks and soon we were on our way to Belgium. After we refreshed a bit in our cabin, we had dinner and then we spent the rest of the evening at the bar. Back in our cabin we watched Food Network until we fell asleep.
