stranges travels..

Right now in Doredrecht in zuid holland like 10 kms from Rotterdam,i ve lived befor yesterday night between 00H00 and 6H00 one of the most scariest experiences since I've left my parents place the 3 of february 2009 at 14H00...The experience to be stuck right in the middle of a storm with thunder all over the head,the sky grey,the heavy rain and powerfull wind blowing the place with a power to make you lie on the floor,and make you feel is the end..soon...the energie concentrated above my head was just so powerfull,thunder came close,the adrenaline came up too..shaking ,thinking i ve laid on the floor for a good 5minutes and then stand on my feet but close to the ground...to be ready to lay again..cause the wind and rain came and go,the road became a river in 2 minits the flood came up and down,...cuple of times in this cuple of hours,no shelter ,I wanted at first to sleep on the beach actually...but when i saw this big black cloud over my head..and packed up only the food bag that i ve taken to eat a little...while waiting if a changing was really about to happend in the sky...2 peoples advise me of that storm but i was thinking let's wait by the beach like that if is there really something coming ,i could moov by the building,but still no proper shelter on the way..
well,from that time i saw this cloud i packed up my food bag and i was about to get ready quickly to get on the escaping road...to somewhere,near some building and a bus stop on the way too...in less than 10 seconds i was all wet..i ve lived rain in Irland ,Scotland,England on the way..but this one was the most powerfull one ever..but it wasn t cold, powerfull..simply powerfull...i have ride under this powerfull rain for a good 3 minutes befor arrving at a bus stop,where there was allready 4 french peoples ,waiting for a bus to go the center to get to Den Haag...they were lost ,looking for the center and there was no bus for long time after that anyway they made their way walking...later only a 2 bus passes 30hour betwen them probably and one guy made a stop on his moped when it was starting to get bad..about the thunder above our heads and the rain coming too..he made is way after 5 minutes..we talked to each others ,but i was allready interrogated by what was going on ,he was scared but confident, made a call,i told him what do you do when is like that??you can only pray to god..this is the only thing you can do he told me..he was the last person i meet for few hours by then..i thought it was the end ,I was going soon..i think i have travelled in a middle of a storm ..witch was powerfull one to me,it was in the zone 5410 near Shweningen..by about 5hoo or5 h30 i wanted to moov..the bad part stopped but still powerfull winds and thunder...i went by the entrance of a building..for might be 2 hours ..where the thunder was above as well...waited there and when the water of the street went away i went back to pick up my bike and went to sleep by the builing and it was late morning..like around7h00..exausted i went to sleep there..a bit later a women woke me up and told me if i wanted a cup of coffe...i said no..i was too tired to be awake yet...and so i stayed asleep for two more hours and then the police came to tell me i wasn' t aloud to sleep there ,that there is places for homeless about,and thatIi should have 60 euros with me...but i had none apart of 40pounds that i still need to change,but i did't enconter any bureau de change yet!....by that time another lady came and asked me if i wanted a cup of coffe then I said yes andI apologise to her and she was feeling sorry about me..with the coffe came a piece of cake and a sandwitch...Deutch peoples are nice..last time happend the same when i sleeped in front of a old fishermans meeting building,they offered me coffe the morning,netherland is definitly a cyclist country,cycle paths all day all the way, I am glad to be here..
At Esther place now,i enjoy to relax and to spend some little time in,watching the freight passing by,so much fret trains in this area...so easy to catch i heard...walked the dog this morning as well...netherland is a clean and tidy place even tho is crawdy....

Amsterdam - Hail, rain and strong winds battered the Netherlands on Tuesday, felling trees, creating localised flooding and causing major road and rail disruption.

The Dutch meteorological institute KNMI said wind speeds of more than 105 km/h caused trees to fall on roads and rail tracks, resulting in long delays throughout the country for commuters.

In the south-west of the country, hailstones of more than 5cm were recorded.

There were more than 300 km of traffic jams on the Dutch roads, with the A20 near Rotterdam entirely closed off in both directions due to flooding and fallen trees.

Lightning brought down the railway network's electrical systems at Leiden, neer The Hague, and several other towns
