When I visited circa 1973 landing at Kai Tak 😱 was the only option. Lots of little Red Books for sale in the town. A trip to the Peak on the island is mandatory. No tunnel then - the ferry was fun though.

Cycle parking on the West Schelde ferry. (Vlissingen to Breskens). Lots of cycles on the water taxi from Dordrecht to Rotterdam too.

I can recommend cycling in the Netherlands. I have not done it myself, but the cycling network is amazing. You can hire cycles at the Hoek van Holland if you travel by ferry.

Eindhoven station 🤣

He is now giving it some beans up to Norwich. Catching up a bit. Might have time for tea and bacon butty before our train to LWT
