at 13:30 (local time)(7:30 Canadian (1&1/2 earlier in Nfld.) Mokum docked in AMSTERDAM! We were greeted by Mary with our friends, Frank and Marja Basters, as well as by Bas, Jan Pieter's brother-in-law. You may find this somewhat confusing, but we had yet one more crew change at 8:30 in the morning in Imeuden where we were greeted by Lesley, Florinda, Yolanda (Jan Pieter's sisters) and Rob (brother-in-law) (three of whom climbed on board for the final cruise down the canal to Amsterdam) Yolanda had to return to work for the morning and Bas disembarked to leave with her (so he was able to "greet" us in AMSTERDAM).
It has been the "ride of a lifetime" for me. Some very anxious times but so many wonderful memories (photos soon to come to the blog). Thank you to Jan Pieter for allowing me to share this amazing experience!
