Our son Jacob (9 years old at the time) asked his American uncle Jan (my dad's younger brother), who was a snowbird in Bonita Springs: "What kind of boat is that? We don't have boats like that in the Netherlands."
Jan was quiet for a moment and in his eyes I could see that he was searching for a funny answer.
'That's a borrelboot, Jacob.'
Borrelboot = Cocktailboat.
Jan passed away last year, but there are some things that remind us of him.
Like yesterday, when I made this picture.
Cheers Jan.
