It was a typical gray and cloudy day in Zaandam. During my walk there I saw a beautiful circle in the water from a quay in the city center. It was another circle of life and death.

Het was weer eens zo’n typische grijze en druilerige dag in Zaandam. Tijdens mijn wandeling zag ik vanaf een kade in het centrum een prachtige kring in het water nabij de palen. De cirkel van leven en dood.
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT AND FAVES
ON THE REACTIONS I WILL TRY TO RESPOND BACK

Zaandam is a city that is close to Amsterdam and from the other side it is close to the Zaanse Schans. This would make you almost forget that the city itself is also worth a visit. In the center there is a lot to see in the field of special architecture, but there is also plenty available in the field of nature and parks. The Veldpark in the photo is an example of this. The river Gouw runs through the beautiful park. The photo shows beautiful reflections of trees on the water in this park.
Nederlands
Zaandam is een stad die vlakbij Amsterdam ligt en vanaf de andere kant ligt het vlakbij de Zaanse Schans. Hierdoor zou je bijna vergeten dat de stad zelf ook de moeite waard is. In het centrum is er op het gebied van bijzondere architectuur van alles te zien, maar ook op het gebied van natuur en parken is er genoeg aanwezig. Zo is er bijvoorbeeld het 'Burgemeester in 't Veldpark'. Door het mooie park loopt de rivier de Gouw. Op de foto zijn mooie reflecties van bomen op het water te zien in dit park.
Mr. Monster is an adventurous traveler and explorer who recently found himself in Amsterdam, the city of the enemy football club. He was there for only a moment due to train problems, but he was mesmerized by the landscape of the river IJ at the back of the station. The cloudy sky and the vast expanse of water captivated him, and he took out his phone to read up on the history of the IJ. As he read, he learned that the IJ was once a shallow lake, but it was eventually transformed into a river by the Dutch in the 17th century. The river was used for transportation and trade, and it was also a source of inspiration for many Dutch painters. Mr. Monster was so enthralled by the history of the IJ that he almost forgot he was in the city of the enemy football club. But when he returned to the station, he was reminded of his beloved Feyenoord from Rotterdam when he saw many locals wearing Ajax shirts. He smiled to himself, thinking of the Dutch championship that Feyenoord had won. On the train he put in his earphones and listened with great pleasure to the very sensitive coversong Mariodona about his Feyenoord childhood hero Mario Been. Super Mario has many nicknames and is seen by many supporters in Rotterdam as the messiah of football in the Netherlands. To the sounds of Mariodona, the train slowly drove out of Amsterdam.
When visiting Whistler, BC, you almost need a few months to witness and experience all of its natural beauty. Aside from Whistler Village and the sites of the 2010 Winter Olympics, Whistler has numerous lakes, hiking trails, and provincial parks in its midst.
There is so much to explore in British Columbia from emerald green rivers to snow-capped mountains.
Take a road-trip from Vancouver to Whistler and you will not be disappointed! It's time to see our own backyard and enjoy all of the natural beauty that Canada has to offer!
