Dolfijn - a Dutch barge moored up at Tarbert, Scotland, pictured at low tide. At one point it was used as a below deck restaurant. For my link I have added a song by a 'Shocking' Dutch lady, from her album 'The shocking miss Emerald' here is Caro Emerald and 'Liquid Lunch' Well maybe she isn't into fish or vegan meals!!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVlOmGoik2c

Loch Fyne and Inveraray Bridge,,and a bench to enjoy the view. To be fair I feel quite insignifant when I see views like this and I am adding Lene Marlin and 'Sitting Down Here' (But Hey..You Can't See Me!) as a link. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClSVzlObxSc

The ruins of Dunure Castle, Ayrshire, and the romantic setting for some of the scenes from Outlander series 3 and 4. The castle dates back to the 1200s and was then the main fortress of the Kennedy Family, Lords of Carrick and Earls of Cassilis. On the right hand side is the 'Doocot', which probably dates to the 15th century, and I added the PiP as I thought the man in the kilt suited the surroundings perfectly I have added a bit of a tongue in cheek link this week.

HBM and a very nice week ahead ! Many greetings from rainy Rhein-Main-Area !

Polder Arkemheen is one of the oldest polders in the Netherlands. In 1356, Graaf Reinoud III van Gelderland granted the inhabitants living there the right to build dikes. For several centuries the polder was able to drain naturally into what was then the Zuiderzee. There was already talk, in 1820, about using a windmill for drainage, but it took until 1863 for the mill to be built, which was named Hertog Reijnout . Twenty years later, in 1883, the windmill was replaced by a steam pumping engine. The old windmill was converted into a home for the pumping station´s operator. The pumping engine has two paddlewheels and can drain an area of 3.000 hectares. It was in service for exactly 100 years. Then, in 1983, drainage was taken over by an electric pumping engine. After a restoration, the steam pumping engine - in the meantime named Stoomgemaal Arkemheen - is open for visitors and is stoked about twelf times every year, occasionally helping out when the electric pumping engine cannot handle the capacity on its own. Stoomgemaal Arkemheen is recognized as a Dutch national monument.
