We ended up staying in a cute hotel in Lekkerkerk the other day. There was a Zone conference scheduled in Rottterdam and we knew that is would be very difficult to get there on time if we had to drive there the morning of the conference. With rush hour and "files" (traffic jams), sitting in our car waiting for the traffic to move just did not sound like a fun way to spend the morning so staying overnight was the best move.
Lekkerkerk is a small village along the Lek river and the hotel was really nice. There is a dyke that runs along the river to keep back the water.As we were driving on top of the dyke we could see that the river water was actually higher than the homes below on the other side. Most of the homes look like they have been there for many years so I suppose there is no need for a little boy keeping his finger in the dyke to save the town.
