I did not stay awake beyond the first fifteen minutes of a single drive in the Netherlands. Out cold. Waking up in
Utrecht to Kasteel de Haar, was startling. I had registered that we were off to see a castle, but I wasn't expecting such a beautifully restored one.
Mesmerized by the beauty of the castle, time slipped away and we never did get to see much of Utrecht, apart from a brief glimpse at the cool double-decker canal restaurants.
