The boat for our river cruise out of Amsterdam was located on java-eiland, an island just north of the train station and boat port. Our ship was located at the west end of the land mass.
Upon boarding we noticed a statue near the water. What could it be now? It was a tribute to the sailors who lost their lives during World War II. A Dutch company paid for it, and placed the names of employees it lost during the war on it. The statue overlooks the bay, day after day, hoping for better news.
A nice thought.
