Zware storm

| Life in Holland | 2 Comments

 Mother nature can be awesome and disturbingly powerful... 'Takkeweer, zegt u? Welnee!'

Nederland ging gisteren gebukt onder een zware storm. De een ondervond zware last, de ander kon zijn plezier niet op.

As explained in an article in the Dutch newspaper to which we are subscribed called Algemeen Dagblad.

I thought this picture was pretty impressive showing how amazingly powerful and dangerous nature can be on the North Sea. It shows "een boot van het loodswezen in Vlissingen vaart uit bij windkracht 9." That's Dutch and means: "a sea-faring vessel leaving the port of Vlissingen at wind gale-force nine." Cool.

Boy, what a storm we have been having the last couple of days. I am glad my feet are firmly attached to terra firma and I am not tumbling around on the high seas now.

A Storm Brewing? :)

Much much much more than just a storm brewing, don't you think?!
