Hi

I went to our annual flower market today in the centre of town a one mile long street with stalls both sides packed with flowers and plants.

Ive tried to get some photos but it is difficult with the hoardes of people there anyway hope you like these..

In the middle is Leeuwarden the building to the right is the Harmonie theatre complex and in the background is the Oldehove historic leaning tower of Leeuwarden.

more photos 1 coffee and little pancakes called poffertjes 2 music for the shoppers Dutch style! 3 the crowds gather.

4 this is the vacant chair memorial I placed in my garden

Of course not.. its for the loved ones Ive lost, my father 1985(age38) my youngest brother 1995(23) and my second youngest brother 2009 (age 41) all through suicide...the empty space they left needed a visible mark..
