Second Ride Peer 2006

[peer]

Just want to share a few pictures with you that I made today!

Motivated by Bunnie's kilometer competition I drove today to my mother for a cup of coffee. She lives on the coast, in a city called Vlissingen in the most south western province of Holland called Sealand. The weather was not so nice, 8 degrees and raining, but the kilometers were good, 358 km!!!


2 pieces of modern art and the coast/sky line of Vlissingen.




Ships on their way from Antwerpen to the North Sea pass very close to the coast/beach.



Heavy traffic on the water!



There are always windmills of course!



View of the harbor, pretty empty now but in summer very busy.



Michiel de Ruyter the most famous Dutch admiral overlooking the sea.



In summer you can eat & drink outside here



This is a statue of my great-great-great-great-great-grandfather, really no joke! He was a ship pilot and saved the lives of many people!



This is how these pilot boats look today.



Sorry for screwing up with the sizing of the pictures. I was a bit in a hurry placing this message. Need to go to the pub to play biljart and drink beer ;D ;D ;D ;D

Nice pics, Peer.

Thanks for sharing.

I'm glad you have the chance to make that machine work a little bit.

Hasta la vista,

Nacho.

Nice pictures Rudy!! We have had a little warm weather here, but the wind has been blowing too much for an enjoyable ride! We spent the day having lunch with JohnJr, no beer, just lunch!!! It was good to see his ugly mug again! I hope your weather stays good enough to have the 2nd VCE meeting. I won't be there but hopefully some of my hats will!!!
