Best laid plans of mice and men and all that …
I had intentions of doing some writing here this week, but somehow it just didn’t materialize. It’s been one of those weeks. I spent all week meaning to upload my photos from last Sunday’s Uitfeest event here in town, but didn’t get that done until this morning. Oh well. Better late than never!
Now that I’ve used up all sorts of clichés and trite expressions, here’s your belated Foto Vrijdag picture. There was a Spanish group performing at the Domplein last Sunday, and I caught this shot of the bass player and the colorful balloons that were all over the Domplein. The Uitfeest is the annual opening celebration of the start of the cultural season. In fact, the Netherlands Film Festival opens this week here in town. Maybe I’ll get to see a celebrity again this year. Is Michiel Huisman in town this year?
Are those two swords bent into the shape of a heart on those balloons?
They are! I haven’t really looked to find out exactly what the symbol is for, but I’ve seen it used before for various art/peace events here in town.
I’m ashamed to say my first thought was talk like a pirate day which passed last Sunday.
Great picture amazing colors…
Thanks!
