Utrecht Central Library

03 Jul 2022 88
Formerly the post office, this magnificent public space was a fun place to spend an hour or so. Lots of nooks to explore, and details only noticed when looking through a room for the third or fourth time. Although the building pre dates the period, the overall feel was quite Art Deco (although some features did make me think more along the lines of Art Nouveau).

Returning my Father to Ellewoutsdijk

16 Jul 2022 86
So, we had a very small amount of my Dad's ashes in a tiny urn, which we decided to bring to his home town of Ellewoutsdijk. In classic Zeeland fashion, the blustery wind brought some cold rain showers, adding an appropriate atmosphere to the occasion. So we left him there, on the dike, where he would have played as a child and first dreamt of taking to the sea.
