A mad dash to Jumbo

We arrived at our beautiful campsite Delftlandhoeve near Delft and jumped on our bikes to race to the local supermarket called Jumbo. It was 2 miles away and closed in 30 minutes. We needed food for supper. We sped along, guided by Google maps, on single track paved roads (no cars allowed) where we met pedestrians, rollerbladers and a pack of cyclists who looked as though they’d got lost on the Tour de France. The countryside was spectacular and we cycled over canals and under the railway. We were within 1 min of Jumbo but kept going round in circles. Only 10 minutes to closing time. Finally we found it, locked our bikes and ran round gathering some basics as the staff packed them away. We rode back more sedately and enjoyed our supper.
