We gathered in Dordrecht for one final breakfast together and explored the medieval city center.
The group split up for two different destinations for the afternoon. One crew went cycling to Oudendsbach to see the Bascilica replica and the other crew went to Willemstad to explore a quaint port town that we know of from a Dutch travel site run by Bob Buckly and Adele Jackson.
