Harbour Festivities

Last weekend we had the annually three days harbour festivities in our village Almere Haven. It was wonderful summer weather and after visiting SC in hospital I decided to have a quick visit in the late afternoon to get my head free of sorrows. There is always an art market where amateur artists can sell  their works.

And there were games for children, watch that eldery woman at the left.

She was laughing and shouting "I did the hula hoop when I was young and I still can!". 
It was a hype when I was young at primary school and we all played this. So she really made my day.

And after this male voice choir singing their shanties I felt much better.

  2. This was a good way to relax a little Marianne, especially knowing s.c. was in good hands. I love amateur art exhibitions, sometimes you can find a real treasure. Much admiration for the lady hula hooping, it's not that easy ☺☺

  3. I am sure that this helped take your mind away from your husband being in hospital, hope that he is making good progress.

  7. That looks like fun! I don't think I could do the hula hoop anymore though. Too bad!
