Father's Day

 

This chubby todler is me with my father in 1948. He was a teacher in Amsterdam and loved photograph and travelling, two things I love too. In his six weeks summerholidays from school, he travelled some weeks as a tour guide to Germany, France and Austria. He also liked carpentry and made a dollhouse for my sister and me and a warehouse for my brother. He died in 1991 at 81 years old.

  6. Nice that your father had some hobbies. Many men don’t. He was also a handsome man. Sounds like to have fond memories of him.
