WORK ON EPISTLES WE TOOK IT EASY AROUND THE HOUSE AND SET UP OUR KINGDOM. WE DON T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT GOING TO AMSTERDAM NOW. WE HAD A GREAT VISIT. WE KNOW WE WILL GO BACK ONE MORE TIME BECAUSE THE ROYAL PALACE WAS BEING USED BY THE KING AND HIS FAMILY. SO WE DID NOT GET CHANCE TO SEE IT. SO THAT IS STILL ON OUR BUCKET LIST TODAY WE WORKED ON EPISTLE PHOTOS OF THE VAN GOGH COLLECTION TO PUT IN OUR EPISTLE.. YES, WE WERE VERY BUSY VICKI WASHED CLOTHES, ETC. ENOUGH OF THE 17TH 2 PAGE

YES, WE HAD A GREAT TIME IN AMSTERDAM, BUT IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE. HOWEVER, WE DID MAKE VERY FRIENDS AND ALL IS WELL. 3 PAGE
4 TUESDAY JUNE 19TH FROM HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS: IN ROTTERDAM. MONIQUE S LOVELY STUDIO (AIRBNB) ROTTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS THE PLAN OF THE DAY: WORK ON EPISTLES, THEN TRAM TO CITY CENTRAL STATION GET TRAIN TRAVEL QUESTIONS ANSWERED.. TAKE WALK AROUND ON BAY AREA TO SEE WATERBUS LOCATIONS AND SCHEDULES BECAUSE VICKI HAS THINGS PLANNED IT IS TIME TO WRITE AND PRAISE THIS GREAT CITY WHERE OUR HOME IS FOR THE NEXT 3 MONTHS ROTTERDAM IS A CITY IN SOUTH HOLLAND IN THE NETHERLANDS WITHIN THE RHINE - MEUSE - SCHELDT RIVER DELTA AT THE NORTH SEA. ITS HISTORY GOES BACK TO 1270, WHEN A DAM WAS CONSTRUCTED IN THE ROTTE RIVER, AFTER WHICH PEOPLE SETTLED AROUND IT FOR SAFETY. IN 1340, ROTTERDAM WAS GRANTED CITY RIGHTS BY THE COURT OF HOLLAND. ROTTERDAM IS A MAJOR LOGISTIC AND ECONOMIC CENTER, AND IS IS EUROPE S LARGEST SEAPORT. 4 PAGE
5 THE NEW DELFT GATE THIS ORANGE-BROWN STEEL CONSTRUCTION WAS UNVEILED IN 1995 ON THE OCCASION OF FIFTY YEARS OF POST-WAR RECONSTRUCTION. INSIDE THE STRUCTURE ARE A NUMBER OF LIONS AND OTHER DECORATIONS FROM THE ORIGINAL GATE THAT STOOD ON HOFPLEIN UNTIL IT IS STATED ON A PLAQUE THAT THE GATE WAS DESTROYED DURING THE BOMBING ON MAY 14 OF THAT YEAR, BUT IN REALITY THE MONUMENT HAD ALREADY BEEN LARGELY DEMOLISHED WHEN THE BOMBS FELL, BECAUSE OF A REDEVELOPMENT OF THE TRAFFIC JUNCTION. IT WAS THE INTENTION TO REBUILD THE GATE SOMEWHERE ELSE ON HOFPLEIN, BUT THAT NEVER HAPPENED UNTIL COR KRAAT MADE THIS STEEL REPLICA IN THE OLD GATE WAS NOT EXACTLY ON THIS SPOT BUT ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE POMPENBURG, NEAR THE (FORMER) SHELL TOWER. 5 PAGE

THE SCULPTURE IS A STYLIZED SHIP S BOW, CUTTING THROUGH WAVES. THE PIECE WAS UNVEILED IN THE DECISION WAS LATER MADE TO ADD A HUMAN ELEMENT TO THE WORK. IN 1965, A GROUP OF BRONZE FIGURES WERE PLACED AT THE FOOT OF THE STATUE. THE TEXT ZIJ HIELDEN KOERS ( THEY STAYED ON COURSE ) APPEARS AT THE BASE OF THE MONUMENT. 11 PAGE
12 WE WALKED BACK AND FORTH ON THE SEA PIER WE LOOKED AT DIFFERENT RIVER SHIPS THAT ARE HERE WAITING FOR CUSTOMERS TO SAIL DOWN THE RHINE RIVER. WE LEARNED THE SCHEDULE OF THE WATERBUS AND WATCHED THE VERY FAST WATER TAXI BOATS. THERE IS LOTS OF ACTION IN THE PORT AREA. WE WALKED THROUGH THE WATER BUS OFFICE AND GENERAL AREA WHERE IT LEAVES FROM. VICKI CHECKED ON SCHEDULES. WE WENT OVER AND CAUGHT THE TRAM TO A STOP WHERE WE COULD GET OFF AND WALK TO A DUDOK RESTAURANT. WE WENT TO GET SOME LUNCH.. AND FINISH WITH THEIR APPLE PIE WE LIKE SO MUCH. (WE ATE THIS WHEN WE WERE AT DUDOK IN THE HAGUE.) WE ORDERED A SNACK BOARD TO SHARE. ALL KINDS OF THINGS THAT GO BUMP IN THE NIGHT, THAT WE COULD EAT MUCH FUN.. 12 PAGE

20 WE HAVE ARRIVED AT OUR DESTINATION: THE KINDERDIJK WORLD HERITAGE SITE, TO SEE AND LEARN ABOUT THE DUTCH WAY OF WATER MANAGEMENT THROUGH THE AGES.. THIS IS THE WATERBUS WE RODE TO THE KINDERDIJK ON AND WILL BE THE ONE WE RETURN ON. IT WILL LEAVE THE KINDERDIJK AT 1600 (4PM). 20 PAGE
21 NOMENCLATURE & DEFINITIONS POLDER IS A LOW-LYING TRACT OF LAND ENCLOSED BY DIKES THAT FORMS AN ARTIFICIAL HYDROLOGICAL ENTITY, MEANING IT HAS NO CONNECTION WITH OUTSIDE WATER OTHER THAN THROUGH MANUALLY OPERATED DEVICES. THERE ARE THREE TYPES OF POLDER: 1. LAND RECLAIMED FROM A BODY OF WATER, SUCH AS A LAKE OR THE SEA BED. 2. FLOOD PLAINS SEPARATED FROM THE SEA OR RIVER BY A DIKE 3. MARSHES SEPARATED FROM THE SURROUNDING WATER BY A DIKE AND SUBSEQUENTLY DRAINED; THESE ARE ALSO KNOWN AS KOOGS, ESPECIALLY IN Noordoostpolder (NORTHEAST POLDER) This municipality has the largest land area in the Netherlands. 21 PAGE
22 SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT BY DON ALLEN FACT: SOME OF THE PEOPLE WHO LIVE IN THE NETHERLANDS ARE OLDER THAN THE LAND THEY LIVE ON THE DUTCH HAVE A LONG HISTORY OF RECLAMATION OF MARSHES AND FENLAND, RESULTING IN SOME 3,000 POLDERS NATIONWIDE. BY ,800 SQUARE MILES (18,000 KM 2 ), ABOUT HALF OF THE COUNTRY'S LAND, WAS RECLAIMED FROM THE SEA. ABOUT HALF THE TOTAL SURFACE AREA OF POLDERS IN NORTH-WEST EUROPE IS IN THE NETHERLANDS. THE FIRST EMBANKMENTS IN EUROPE WERE CONSTRUCTED IN ROMAN TIMES. THE FIRST POLDERS WERE CONSTRUCTED IN THE 11TH CENTURY. 22 PAGE
23 KINDERDIJK IS A VILLAGE BELONGING TO THE MUNICIPALITY OF MOLENWAARD, IN THE PROVINCE SOUTH HOLLAND, EAST OF ROTTERDAM. KINDERDIJK IS SITUATED IN A POLDER AT THE MEETING OF THE LEK AND NOORD RIVERS. TO DRAIN THE POLDER, A SYSTEM OF 19 WINDMILLS WAS BUILT AROUND (ONE IN THE 1550 S) THIS GROUP OF MILLS IS THE LARGEST CONCENTRATION OF OLD WINDMILLS IN THE NETHERLANDS. THE WINDMILLS OF KINDERDIJK ARE ONE OF THE BEST-KNOWN DUTCH TOURIST SITES. THEY HAVE BEEN A UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITE SINCE PAGE

26 WE WENT INTO THE OLD 1900 S PUMP ROOM. THIS USED ELECTRIC MOTORS WITH ELECTRICITY FURNISHED BY BOILER DRIVEN GENERATORS THAT WAS INSTALLED AT THE TURN OF THE CENTURY IN 1900.THESE HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY VERY LARGE DIESEL DRIVEN VARIABLE SPEED HIGH CAPACITY SCREWS. THEY OPERATE ON AN AS NEEDED BASIS, BASED NOW ON WATER LEVELS AND THE TIDE CHARTS. THESE UNITS NOW KEEP ALL OF THE AREA DEWATERED. 26 PAGE
27 27 PAGE
28 28 PAGE
29 THIS IS ONE OF THE TWO WINDMILLS THAT ARE MUSEUMS. THEY HAVE PROGRAMS AND INFORMATION OF HOW THEY WERE EACH RUN BY FAMILIES WHO LIVED IN THE MILL. WE TOOK A FULL TOUR OF BOTH OF THE MILLS. THE OTHER 17 WE WALKED PAST AND SAID: GOLLY GEE WHIZ! 29 PAGE
