here are a few more photos of mom’s trip to europe back in the 50’s. i know that the people out there who don’t read this but just look at the photos will be very confused about these pictures because sometimes people seem to think that we’re STILL on our bike trip in austria.
but that’s what you get when you don’t read.
this is mom and her friend judy with some “character” they encountered.
and these are a couple of photos in Volendam.
Volendam is a “popular tourist attraction in the Netherlands, well-known for its old fishing boats and the traditional clothing still worn by some residents. The women’s costume of Volendam, with its high, pointed bonnet, is one of the most recognizable of the Dutch traditional costumes, and is often featured on tourist postcards and posters (although there are believed to be fewer than 50 women now wearing the costume as part of their daily lives, most of them elderly).”
mom took many gorgeous photos of the place, and it makes me want to go there.
one more photo, this is a lake between Linz and Salzburg.
and, just to clarify here, these are all photos that mom took a long time ago on her trip to europe.
ok, that’s all for now,
