This train is standing at the VROUEMONUMENT in Bloemfontein. Another name for Bloemfontein is Mangaung.
Always strange... Such Dutch names and titles with such un-dutch photos!

Yes we had a fun day at the monument and the car was one of the car club members car. This monument were erected for the woman and children who died in concentration camps during the war. Some Afrikaans word like vrouemonument might not sound strange to you. Although I think it must sound strange to people only speaking English or other languages. I love listening to people talking from the Netherlands. Most of the time you can understand what they are saying.

Indeed. So we think 'Afrikaans' is such a beautiful 'dialect'!

I love the pov, the comp and the light here, Sylvia, and it works so well in b&w. Welcome to the Project, and thanks for following me--I'll be following you back, and I look forward to seeing your work. I hope you enjoy it and learn lots (as has been. and still is, the case with me). I also am sorry to learn that your husband is ill--hope things improve for him.

I love travel and this is the only way I can "travel" at this stage. Having Alzheimers - no cure ..... Make the best of a bad situation and ask God to help you being strong.
