stormdogI was on a long bike ride today, so the Netherlands decided it was the perfect time for the first thunderstorm we've had since I moved here 6 months ago.
But I'm not even mad. I enjoyed being on my bike in the rain again. Though I was *really* wet for half an hour or so on the way home...
By total luck, I was at the channel at the right time to see this gorgeous ship go by.
The Europa is a steel-hulled barque built in 1911. She looks pretty good for 109 years old!
