Trip Report -- Day 8

Monday morning we hopped in the X3 and headed for United Stevedores Amsterdam. It wasn't far, so I plugged the address into the Nuvi and let it guide us there. Bad idea. There is a lot of road construction in the area. Some of the roads the Nuvi wanted to take us on were just plain gone.

I had looked at the area on Google Earth a few days earlier, so I had a rough idea of where we needed to be. I wandered around a bit annoying Debbie to no end. Eventually I got us to about the correct place. The Nuvi kept trying to take us down the wrong pier. Any readers planning to drop a car in Amsterdam: Email USA and get directions. Don't try and use GPS.

For fellow EDer's planning an Amsterdam drop off:
