The cluster of houses in the middle distance, on the far side of Bodega Bay, is the village of the same name. This photo was taken from the high cliffs on the ocean-facing side of Bodega Head, some of which you saw in the last “Coasting” entry a bit further down.
Last City Lights entry from that lovely dinner on the lagoon my first evening in Abidjan last week. Maybe the last City Lights entry for a while, since the days grow wonderfully long here in Amsterdam, which means I rarely have much chance to observe city lights lately 🙂
On the beach by the small South-Holland village of Wassenaar, on the night from 27 to 28 February, 1944, several French resistance fighters landed to support the Dutch resistance effort. Slightly more than 79 years later, Nikos and I visited the beach (on our way back from the short outing I showed you earlier), within days of the anniversary and commemoration, and were moved by the wreaths honoring these lost lives, so many decades later.
(so much world, so little time....)
