I have seen worse-looking funnels!

Must make for good arm muscles!

Many layers of open decks make her a very pleasant ship.

Dutch bulbfields

 

The area around Lisse, Hillegom and Noordwijkerhout is a mecca for lovers of bulb fields. This so-called bulb region is located just behind the dunes and it is wonderful to stay.

 

Another area in the region where you find many bulb fields is the West Friesland region. The area lies between Hoorn, Enkhuizen and Medemblik.

Crocusses as far as the eye can see. Bulb season is here!

Can you spot the stray daffodil?

Dutch bulbfields -

 

The word tulip, first mentioned in western Europe in or around 1554 and seemingly derived from the "Turkish Letters" of diplomat Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, first appeared in English as tulipa or tulipant, entering the language by way of French: tulipe and its obsolete form tulipan or by way of Modern Latin tulīpa, from Ottoman Turkish tülbend ("muslin" or "gauze"), and may be ultimately derived from the Persian: دلبند‎ delband ("Turban"), this name being applied because of a perceived resemblance of the shape of a tulip flower to that of a turban. This may have been due to a translation error in early times, when it was fashionable in the Ottoman Empire to wear tulips on turbans. The translator possibly confused the flower for the turban.

... and we were free to wander about as we wished! The onlookers above, the passengers below -- Antwerp could not have been friendlier to its shippy people. We really enjoyed the atmosphere.

The Queens' Day revellers had come out to wave to us as we sailed away.

There was much frolicking and activity on all the canals.

Floriculture at the Flevopolder area near Zeewolde, The Netherlands.

Sunday 15th of April we had the warmest day in April ever.

And I have never seen the bulbfields so beautiful!

Definitely the grandest cinema façade I have ever seen!

Lovely art deco house front.

Bright colors, but a gloomy atmosphere. The picture was taken only shortly before I knew that my brother and his family had to rush to the hospital, but nevertheless this pic sort of describes my feelings at the moment, now that I know that his father in law passed away that same Christmas day.

The pilot boat stayed alongside for considerable time, until we froze even more... One wag wondered whether the pilot was finishing his drink with the captain before disembarking. Eventually, when he came, he was very quickly on his boat and gone!
