The biggest of the 3 locks |
My Ome Frits and Tante Thea came on Day 2, Friday, April 18 to pick us up and take us for a tour. First we went to the Harbour in Ijmuiden, the area where they lived when I last visited The Netherlands in 1978 with Dave and Caroline, who was 4 at the time. We had stayed with them for 5 weeks that summer. It was a cool, windy morning there today.
My uncle joked that he had ordered this big auto boat from Norway to be there coming out of the lock. |
