On the screen at the left is an image of this year’s Den Bosch Carnaval Prince. (New one each year.) Adding most of the rest of my Den Bosch Carnaval photos from last month, for fun. Look for the beer-cup holder attached to a tuba, and the many frogs which are also part of the whole Den Bosch Carnaval experience 🙂
Recently I promised more photos from den Bosch, et voila. I (and work) treated me to a week of intensive Dutch at a school just south of the city, which ended on the weekend of Carnaval. Den Bosch is one of the two main provincial capitals in which I’ve always heard they take the whole Carnaval thing seriously. Above is the Saturday car parade with Den Bosch Centraal train station in the background: frogs, the red – white – yellow, jackets (usually black) with many patches, and general festivity are the theme. Below, more from Saturday and Sunday.
It’s night on two years since I last shared views from Den Bosch with you, but having recently spent a weekend staying there, these are the first of more to come.
Last shots from my early-July stay in Heusden for a work week, with one shot from a bike ride I did across the Maas in Geldersland, the church from the town I believe was Spijk below right.
(so much world, so little time....)
