Holland revisited...
It must be in the winter, it's Dec 1976, and look at all those kids skating on the canal!
...just a minute, these aren't kids, this looks like the Krom sisters! It's Corrie and Tini!
And they appear to have had a good time!
Coach: "Listen up, Corrie. We sent you to Canada to learn how to play their rougher style. Now you're back, and bigger, and faster, and tougher. So get out there and let them know you're here!"
Focus! ...you gotta stay focussed!
...that's better! (L-R) That's Tante Tini, and her daughters Marion and Dolinda on either side of mom, and then there's Oma!
This must be another section of the skate path. It's in Limmen, and that's Ingrid Krom, Om Piet and Tante Riet's daughter. It looks like some people are just walking on the ice!
And all that snow just begs to be made into snowballs! Looks like Oma Krom's place? I like the sleds that they have... Remember, there are no hills in Holland! ...what a drag...
L-R Astrid, unknown, and Ingrid. Astrid and Ingrid are sisters.
And here comes Oma Krom on her bike, on the slippery road! ...the kids were waiting with snowballs for her to return...
Well, skating practice is over, and now it's time to warm up with the family! Tante Tini, and Tante Riet, with mom.
...still a bit cold, so maybe a little more warming up is called for! Oma, Mom, and Tante Riet, sampling the local beverages...
And now the vistors at Oma Krom's, and everyone wanted to hear how the skating practice went... L-R Om Wim, his son Marco, Mom, and Ingrid.
Uhhhh..... Ok. Am I related to this person? Oh. Really? ...are you absolutely certain? It's Mom, eating a herring dipped in chopped onion!
