The Netherlands Part 4 The North Sea

One day we went to the North Sea! I was so excited…Norway is on the North Sea! My mother is full-blooded Norwegian, my great-great grandparents came to America from Norway! But when we got to the North Sea we couldn’t see across it, it’s too big! And that’s as close as I’ve ever gotten to Norway!

On the way we stopped at Breskens. This picture is of Jerry and me beside a shrimp boat!

Then there’s a picture of us with our friends who took us to the North Sea. The beautiful North Sea is behind us, Dirk, Tom, myself and Jerry, Lettika and Anja. Henk took the picture. It was a chilly, blustery day. But we were warm with friendship on the inside. We had a wonderful day with our friends and it was exciting just to be at the North Sea.

      • Hi Sue. Thanks for your comment. I probably haven’t been clear. This is all our one trip to the Netherlands in 1994. It’s too long to put in one blog so I’m doing it in parts. The next part, #6, will be our day in Haarlem at the ten Boom Clock Shop and the Hiding Place.
