visiting Brielle






























We've visited my father and grandfather today. We sat in the beautiful green garden enjoying the sun and in the afternoon we went out for a walk in the centre. There was a remembrance of all the people who died during WW II and there was a 'play' of American soldiers in uniforms. This all must be weird to see for the people that actually experienced WW II.. like my grandfather. In a synagogue we saw some photo's of a Jewish girl named Kitty that lived in Brielle but who was, unfortunately, transported to Auschwitz. My grandfather pointed at her and told me a story about her. He knew her as a child. "Such pretty girls", he said. How sad.
