liberation day

5th of May 2020

A day to celebrate freedom.

Liberation Day is celebrated every year on the 5th of May. It’s a day to realize how lucky we are to live in a country where people live in freedom.

Today 75 years ago our country was liberated and we have lived in freedom ever since.

More than ever, we appreciate the freedom we are used to.

No festivals and no parties this year, we made a bike ride through our city and had a lovely picnic at the riverside. We enjoyed a sunny afternoon in the garden and had dinner at Pippa's who cooked a delicious meal for us tonight.

On Saturday we had snow showers throughout the day.

Sunshine and snow on Sunday! Perfect for an afternoon walk along the rivers of Dordrecht.

What a cool surprise after Christmas. All dressed for the cold, warm knitted sweater, woolen coat and wool-lined boots.

Today was a perfect day to wear my new woolen hat, I got from Pippa on Christmas Eve.

On the outermost tip of the city's shipyards (we had to crawl under fences), you have a beautiful view of Villa Augustus.
