In Holland they think that they should change everything every 5 years. Also some beautiful designs like the letter boxes. One of the Postal designers in Holland decides this letter box is not good enough anymore- let's make another. And they made another. Looks like a trash can. The one left is an original. The designers could not reach that one. It is still receiving letters. At the Promenade Shopping Center in Curaçao.

About 30 year after the british abolished slavery, The Dutch did that in 1863 and 25 years later they put a plaque in the wall, commemorating the event. Instead of shaming themselves, that thing gave the impression that the people should be grateful to the King. How deep can you go.

Bill Kwist Garden, Bushwick New York. Bill kwam als Willem Kwist naar Amerika als bediende op een passagiersschip bij de Holland Amerika Line geloof ik. En droste. Werd later gearresteerd en dreigde gedeporteerd te worden. Een vriendin - een Joodse vrouw, nu 82, was bij de Memorial Service die gehouden werd vorige week in Bill's tuin - heeft gezorgd dat hij kon blijven. Later kon Bill met haar hulp het Amerikaanse staatsburgerschap aannemen. Bill was legaal blind, werd later ook nog doof. Hoe hij deze handicaps wist te bevechten en overwinnen is een wonder op zich.
