Vlissengen looks like a very nice town, big enough for variety and small enough to be comfortable. A very good port and protected harbor with a very long canal that should be good water transportation.
Looks like a nice place to grow up in, you were most fortionant.
Thank you for sharing..
Karl

The photo is not very flattering with a camera shot by a person of a little mind. Herring is good though, this is one of the carry overs from my childhood in Demark. That is pickled Herron or Lutefisk. In Denmark as with my self at present, is a quick lunch of Smorrebrod {open sandwich of dark bread or rye} with a few pickled herren toped upon. Not always of course, for to be polite, some folks do not enjoy the sight or smell whilst in the canteen at meal time, so it is grab and quickly leave to eat in the coffee room. Karl Karl, I know that not everybody enjoys smelling herring, I love herring still..... and nobody looks perfect all the time. What Angela was going to do? She did not want to make her dress dirty? I do not remember eating: Smorrebrod, but you made me hungry. I am going to eat my herring in the jar now

Dear Jaga and Karl,
There is no elegant or flattering way to eat herring. So Merkel was photographed in a moment she was just eating herring. Big deal, that people would deliberately show her in an ugly way is their problem. She continues her job and will be photographed and filmed for hundreds or thousands of times after this photo. Most important thing is that she is a good chancellor.
Cheers, Pieter

Pieter, this town video looks lovely as a postcard and video..... although I am not sure I could live there the whole life, so maybe it is a good for Pieter not to live there all the time. For me, it is a bit claustrophobic to live at the sea. I like water but I am so used to the mountains and just imagining if there will be a water storm or tsunami!

Pieter,
I completely agree with everything you said and I tried but could not express it better: There is no elegant or flattering way to eat herring.

I have no idea the many times in count that I read and reread some of those books to my children when they were small. Each time to reread the same books to them was as if they had never heard it before. And it was fun reading to them each time. Karl
