- In this video I am taking you to Zeeland, one of the provinces in The Netherlands. The year that my father was born, 1953, there was a huge flood here, killing 1800 people, including people from my family. My dad explains what happened and after that, I am showing you how the Dutch have worked to make sure that this will never happen again.

Dad is the prime example of a dad. Daughter has driven alone for a few years around the globe. Dad just a few miles from home: " you know how to get back?"
FrenchAfroman 😂💖💖💖 I was thinking the same!!!
Dads are just dads :)
LOL 😂
I think dads knows the way .. but I heard it to .so funny
I thought mum said it , but yes still caring about their world traveller..😃
So cute: "Do you know how to get back?"
She that has been all over the world.
♥️
That's what dads do :)
That`s one of many questions that parents ask, no matter how old you are. :)
If I were her dad I think I would be in a constant state of anxiety.. Imagine how they must have felt when she was stuck in Peru!
Right? That made me smile. Even if she didn't remember the exact route...GPS. :D
Don't know any of these people and do enjoy their interaction, but when dad asked her I felt a full sense of relief, as a dad and grand dad, seems emotionally silly doesn't it?
Dear mr and mrs itchy boots, thank you a thousand times for Noraly!
Mr & Mrs Schoenmaker. 🙂
Your Dad and I were born in the same year. He should be proud of the daughter he has raised and how she is educating the world...
Me too...all us old guys..lol
Totally agree 👍
Me too
Daughter is always near to the father's heart. Thanks for showing your parents.!! Your country is as beautiful as you are..!!
👍
Indeed
I'm in Love with her. Welcome Tanzania in East Africa.
It looks funny to see Noraly's fingernails painted red.
@@ricktaylor3748 She is also a women...
Dad to Noraly - "do you know how to drive back? "
That's love for daughter. Even though she has explored world on bike all alone.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Maybe he figures that’s why she’s been gone so long. Christ, her sense of direction is so bad she drove all the way around the world to get back home and in the end she had to put her bike on a plane.
9:48 I don't think I've ever heard a cuter "Hi" from a kid ❤️
Thishan , absolutely agree , really made me smile😁
I am an 87 year old arm chair tourist. My condolence to you & your parents what a tragedy. Thanks for showing me around your beautiful country. What a wonderful feat of engineering the Dutch people did a marvelous job in reclaiming the land from the sea. I have being binge watching your videos and admire your courage. Your photography and drone shots are stunning. Kept up the good work and looking forward to your next adventure. from Ontario Canada
This must be an incredible Father to raise such an independent, adventurous, and brave Daughter. My hat is off to him.
What about her mom ?
And to her mother.
He probably put her on a motorbike before she able to walk!
Maybe pants are off to him
Enjoyed very much hearing this part of Dutch history. I was nine years old so I was not aware of this at all as I didn’t read the news in the United States. On a personal note, my parents and I toured Europe in 1963. My father’s parents immigrated to the United States from Germany and he was raised speaking Platt Deutsch (Spelling?), The northern German dialect. While in the Netherlands he heard people speaking in the booth behind us in a restaurant and was absolutely amazed that he could understand most of what they were saying. When he got up to ask them what language they were speaking, they laughed and said Dutch as we were in the Netherlands! If he spoke slowly and so did the people who spoke Dutch, he had no trouble getting us through the Netherlands. I am now 76 years young since my recent birthday and no words can describe the joy I get from following your travels.
Milt Carlton what a wonderful story, I found Noraly about three months ago, she is a national treasure of the Netherlands, in my view. A beautiful place I’ve never seen and would love too.. - rgds Australia 🇦🇺

I, too, was 9 back when this happened. I was in an isolation hospital with a nasty dose of scarlet fever. They had the BBC Light Programme going all day long and we heard all about the flooding in East Anglia. They may have mentioned the Netherlands, but at age 9 I might have thought that was a place name in EA.
Which is..( plat duits )
I'm English and fluent in German, written and spoken, and can also understand the Bavarian and Austrian accent. I concur, if you can speak both languages, you can also understand a bit of Dutch, sometimes as much as 40-50%.
Platt Deutsch is very very similar to the dialect spoken in the Dutch province of Groningen. It's also know as Ost Friesisch (eastern Frisian) and Gronings dialect. These are dialects in the Neder Saksisch language, spoken in the north eastern provInces of the Netherlands and north western region of Germany. In the Netherlands we also have West Fries dialect (spoken in a small part of the province of North Holland, at the north west coast of the Netherlands. And then there is the Frisian language (not a dialect but an official language) spoken in the Province of Friesland (or Fryslân in the Frisian language), a province in the north as well, between the provinces of North Holland and Groningen. The Frisian language (Frysk) is taught in schools in the province as well, and in most small towns and villages it is spoken on a daily basis. That goes for the all the dialects (also the Zeeuws dialect, from the province of Zeeland where Noraly's dad and his family originate from): in the bigger cities it is not as common to speak the dialects any more, but in small towns and villages it is still in use. Don't worry however, we all speak Dutch too and most of can reasonably manage in English and German as well. 😉
Brings back memories for me. My first visit to the Netherlands was with my parents. My father grew up in Willemstad. I have a picture of him at the highest point in his village pointing to the high water mark from that flood. My Opa’s house and the town was under water.
After the war, then flood, my Opa and Oma sold everything they had and moved their family - immigrated to Nova Scotia, Canada. My parents met here. My mom’s family immigrated around the same time to Ontario. It’s ironic how they needed to move half was across the world to meet when they only lived a short distance away in Holland. If they would have stayed, they would have never met. My father was on a journey from NS, heading west to BC. He met my mom in Ontario and his journey ended.
I have since taken my kids back (with my mom) to the same spots so they could get a sense of where their Opa and Oma are from.
Your parents are so sweet, no wonder they have a daughter like you!
There are two kinds of ambassadors in this world.
There are ambassadors that are assigned by governments.
Then, there are ambassadors who are what they are by their lived experience and work.
What is an ambassador?
An ambassador is a person who performs a desperately needed and fundamental function: Connecting us all. Connecting humans by creating awareness of who we are and what do as people.
Noraly, you're an ambassador.
The motorcycle is incidental to what you do. And you do it naturally and with compelling freshness and honesty and wholesomeness.
Do you know what is the functional opposite of a bomb strike? The impact of a woman who presents a culture or people in a positive and empathetic light - who connects people in a way that moves us to experience each other as brother and sisters.
Listen: I had lots of schooling. I never learned and appreciated so much about the Netherlands and your struggles with water. Never in my life. And I learned about it through your wonderful family. A father and mother that I know are proud of you.
You see, people best experience and appreciate history and geography and culture through the lens of people. People like you.
Your problem is this: There’s more precious work needed connecting people in this troubled world then you have tires to travel.
I love your videos. I thank you for your work. You have a gift. Your work is just that: hard work! But anyone can see that you’ve got a gift in this most needed profession.
This ain’t National Geographic. This is Itchy Boots!
Stay safe and stay excellent.
Beautifully expressed.
When the objective is money making like what corporations are for, there is not so much other things achieved but when the drive is passion, the effectiveness is huge ❤️
BRAVO Julian!! what a beautiful and wholesome comment!!!
How wonderfully stated!!! Hear here!!!
@@C_R_O_M________ she doesn’t ride alone, she rides with all of us!
Liked before I watched, you know it will be good!!. Your Dad loves you so much, He held your hand, as a proud Dad does as you said good bye!! Thanks to all for the history lesson. You are doing GREAT!!.
I am just viewing some of the older videos now. After watching 100% of S5 and S6, then many misc others, how wonderful you had your parents on as the more I learn about you, the more I have been wondering about who your parents are. They have to be so proud of you. Your list of personal strengths is long but being a teacher is up there towards the top! I have learned so much history and geology from you in just a short time not to mention the many other topics you cover. It is so addicting. Thank you for being a shining light we all need. ❤❤
Now I'm following you following her ? Grappig..☝️❤️🌍🇿🇦
Thank you for taking me a around the world and showing me things I will never see in my lifetime with my own eyes
The Netherlands has always been a country I have loved and admired, it's really nice to get this insight into the history and the workings of the country very good videos and very informative.
Mum filming Noraly at the beginning + Mum/Dad: "You know how to ride back?". 😉 This reminds me of my parents. They are the same everywhere! 😎
Thank you Noraly to shows us your country we learn something now we have little history about Netherlands thanks so much we wish you the best after this covid 19 to travel again God bless you Noraly💖
Yeah, you know how to ride back to someone who rode almost across the whole globe lol
That was typical of parents, mine do the same thing 🤣
Today it was 70 years ago. Thanks for making this video, because we should not forget what this disaster meant and still means to our country
my parents both were involved those years as volunteers to help with what they were tasked to, they were those years 13 and 12 years old, my grandfather was a fireman those years, and was deployed to do rescues and recoveries. We still have a book at home about that tragedy. Good to hear my birth language in your video!!
Very interesting to see the place that gave my country its name, greetings from New Zealand!
Crazy to think it's literally on the other side of the globe
I recommend seeing Zeeland, it is so so different from Aotearoa , natural beauty it doesn't have, but the people will amaze you. Think several thousand Noraly's.... Just sweet and friendly, and like New Zealanders not a care in the world!
You have a beautiful family and country. Sorry for the tragedy. Thank you for sharing!
As I've said before, you're such a good teacher. [And that from a teacher with 30 years under his belt]. Your explanations are so clear and informative, and the drone footage made your "lesson" easy to follow, on top of being just beautiful. As others have said, you've become quite the professional videographer, all the more impressive as yours don't have that slick, "canned" feel to them. It's just you being Noraly/Itchy Boots that we've come to know and love. Professional and personal in perfect balance. You're a treasure.
I'm so glad you are still doing local content while at home, you are not just riding around, you give history and facts that many motovloggers lack while driving around! Love the documentary style your videos are evolving into, so much growth and entertainment! Keep up the great work!! ♥️ it!
Fantastic drone footage, history and great engineering explained as well as family insights, perfect. Cheers from Hamburg, Jürgen
Thankyou for sharing that, my parents have both gone now and l wish l had paid more attention to thier stories. My dad was a policeman and rescued people in the 1953 flood. Best wishes Alex, norfolk uk
Alex don't feel bad.. its human nature..
We always realize value of a person once they are gone.
Be kind and helpful like your father.. be a good father too.
So the whole world has come to a stop and Noraly smiles and says "OK, let's go!" To all the grump people out there, cheerfulness is a choice!
I love The Netherlands above all and cry from my deepest soul each time I see this lovely land and hear her lively language. Dank je wel!
Fascinating, but tragic! Thanks so much for showing us this incredible engineering, your beautiful country and your lovely parents! Hopefully we'll hear some stories from your shy mom during you're time at home.
Hi Noraly - Thank you for this very interesting video. At 9:04, I got a kick out of your dad’s typical dad comment of could you ‘find your way back’. You traveled all over the ‘ztans’ and India, the Mid East and parts of South America - alone - and he was concerned if you could find your way. ;-) As a dad who has made similar comments to my sons, I loved it. Thank you and ride safe.
I laughed when he said it.
Once a Dad, always a Dad worrying about their children. A world wide concern
Lol
As a fellow Dutchie I really enjoyed this video! Good to get a history update once in a while. Funny to hear you speak with your father with a bit of an accent. I haven't heard it when you talk with other dutch people in your videos.
I've been watching you off and on for sometime going to countries all around the world I just realised I don't know much about your home country but now I know about your proud dad sad family history and the country of Holland thanks for this🇳🇱🇯🇲😎👍
I've spent most of my life working on flood defences in the East of England and we have often asked the Dutch for advice! I'm very familiar with the coast around Holland and have sailed into many of these places. Just lovely.
Stuffy I did some work on the temporary Flood Barriers for Lowestoft a few years back - fascinating subject.
I enjoy your happy intros into your videos: "Good morning Internet." Good morning Noraly. :-)
Wow a history lesson in the country of your birth. And seeing your parents and the background music to views of where you are high up with the drone were quite great, along with the scenery.
As a New Zealander, it's great to see some of the "original". I can understand the naming. Lovely country!
That was fascinating, thank you Noraly. I was in Rotterdam with a theatre group and rock band in the early 1970s. We played all over Holland and also appeared on tv. We came from Bath in England xxx
Fascinating, think you’ve found your next project a detailed travel/history of the country’s you visit 👍😎
Thanks Noraly - it reminds me of my first trip to Holland on a school journey from the UK in 1963. We stayed in Wijk-an-Zee and toured around the country taking in the kind of sights that you've shown. We also had a family holiday at a beach resort near Zandvoort a few years ago. The 1953 floods badly affected the east coast of England also which are well documented. Love Holland and keenly follow all of your adventures. Ride safely!
In 1953, I was twelve (12) years old, and I remember without the details reading about this disaster, and later reading one or more National Geographic Magazine articles about the storm and the efforts to rebuild and upgrade Holland's sea flood protection infrastructure.
It's nice to meet your parents norali ❤
One of the most relaxing channels with rich contents i always watch at least one of your videos every night before i go to sleep SO wishing you all the best and long life kind lady. (From other side of planet AFGHANISTAN)
Both my parents immigrated to Canada before the flood of '53. However, all their family members (my aunts, uncles, and cousins) remained. On my dad's side at Axel, on my mother's side in the de biesbosch, Dordrecht, Werkendam. They endured much hardship. Thank you for the informative review of the flood and what the folks in the Netherlands have done to protect themselves. I've visited the Netherlands many times but found this video excellent. My dad spoke dutch to me when I was a kid, however, I'm not around many dutch folks where I live (Kentucky), but I found that I could understand/follow some of the dutch being spoken. Enjoyed reminiscing.
In basic school we've learned a bit about the struggle from the Dutch people against the water but in this 18 minutes video I learned more about it than I did all those years ago. We can see you put a lot of research in your video's. Love to see more of those. So sorry to hear about the loss of family in 1953.
I am addicted to Noraly's You Tube documentaries! And that is what they are-- cleverly presented with videography that surpasses most experts, pleasing musical background, and so much valuable information! I would be so proud to have you as a daughter. Congrats to your parents!
Your "Let's go" always give me a reason to smile...luv it😍
As a Belgian we have heard about these things in school, one lesson, holland and the water stuff but to see it all so close up and with some real family history, GREAT content! thanks for sharing Noraly!
As a Guatemalan too.
A big hello to your parents. They did a fantastic job of supporting their daughter thru her formative years so she could become the optimistic and self assured person she is today. Thanks, Ronn
Ek het ook heeltemal good verstaan. Oorspronklik can SA. Nou baie ver weg.
Hi Noraly, I just found your video showing Delta works, this reminds me when I studied in Holland more than 40 years ago studying hydrology in Delft. Thanks for sharing...
Another fascinating Vlog Noraly, thank you (and your Dad) for sharing your family history with us. And for showing us more of the fantastic countryside where you live :)
Keep it up please
I thought I knew a reasonable amount about post WW2 history, but I did not know about this tragic episode. This was a most informative and enjoyable video Noraly. On a lighter note, while at a fuel station the other day a young girl (about 8) noticed one of your stickers on my bike. She was jumping up and down shouting 'Noraly Noraly!' According to her Dad she is a massive fan of yours and watches your videos with him when they are not out on his GS! See, you bring joy to all ages! Atb.
"You kow how to drive back?" Your father asked you during farewell. That was the nicest moment, made tears in my eyes. He was instinctly doing his best to help and protect you asking that otherwise regular question what in your case, after going around the world with your motorbike sounded so special. Congratulation for your jurney and family, and thank you for the nice times wachting your videos. Cheers.
This young lady's videos are so brilliantly produced, great composition, music and photography. What a talent!
Adds Canadian Love and solidarity! We Canadians have a special relationship with the Dutch -- as I have discovered over the years! :-)
We sure do!
Absolute Canadians are a inportend part of or liberators from WW2. Much loved bij the Dutchy's.
Very true. I would not be typing this without help by the Canadians to my dad
70 years of liberation by Canadians - memorial flag: www.uitinapeldoorn.nl/dynamic/media/2/images/Bevrijdingsvlag%20Apeldoorn.jpg
Yes, many people forget Canada's heroic contribution to Europe's freedom. Thanks Canada. 🇬🇧 🇬🇧
Say thanks to the parents that they have such a wonderful interesting beautiful daughter👍👍👍
Mom of course would like to see grand children but I don't think that's going to happen...
@@kellyjackson7889 You never know...
Thank you for sharing your family s
Tail. And your wonderful country
Hi Noraly,
Thankyou for the very comprehensive explanation of how the Netherlands are protected. My Opa and Oma left the Netherlands post the first world war and moved to South Africa where my mother was born, and where I was born. I am now living on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia and have never seen the extent of engineering that protects the low lands, and as an engineer I must say it is amazing. Love all your videos and travels, come visit us one day again.
Allan Reynolds.
Although I'm missing the travels through South America on your way to Alaska , it's so interesting to visit your country with you. I'm completely amazed at the engineering that they came up with to save this part of your beautiful country. Being from the States along the Mississippi River I believe we could learn a thing or three from the Dutch. Flooding here is an every year occurrence. Thanks for the tour
It's time to start a family we dads although bikers for life we need grand kids to play with installah you find a nice life partner
@John That's probably a result of climate change. Man-made or natural, not going to discuss that here. In NL we also face some big European rivers, our country basically is one big delta. Over the passed few years we have been giving land along those rivers back to the water, so during flood season we have reservoirs and during dry season we have beautiful nature to enjoy and allow the flora/fauna to thrive.
by the way, thank your father from your fans... he gave us you
great vids, keep posting!
Zum Schenken von Noraly gehören 2 Menschen.Vater und Mutter!
I watched this again as I was discussing Dutch history with a friend. Thank you Noraly.
Every time we are going to Holland, I 'm in admiration of those fences, the political decisions and the engineering that made this possible. It means to me that human being, when of good will, can make miracles for the benefit of all. How many countries in the world can achieve this?? Not so many, I'm afraid....
That was really wonderful, Noraly. A bit of personal touch too. Great energy as always. Keep going and be safe.
Hi Noraly! A very interesting video indeed. I was sorry to hear of your family tragedy so many years ago. The sheer scale of the engineering that has since taken place to protect the lowlands is quite astonishing! Thanks for sharing this bit of your country's history with us. Looking forward, as always, to your next video! Ride safe and stay safe!
Just watched your current South African trip which I'm enjoying as I was there 2 years back and loved it, plus also saw your your escape from Bolivia from Ep 72 (wow stressful) and somehow just stumbled across your Netherlands flood barrier vids .........all absolutely marvellous. The latter I loved your technical info, so not lost on me (and I'm sure others). Will definitely follow your new vids and catch up on your old. Excellent!!!
Thank you very much for the education. My mother is 81, she has asked me many times about this subject throughout the years and I never could have explained to her the way you explained to us. Now I can use your examples to explain it all to her. Regards.
The love in your fathers eyes when he saw you was golden!! And also a huge thank you for another great lesson in history and culture! Your attitude and presence is captivating. vriendelijk bedankt Noraly! All the love and well being from Finland! - Perttu
I thouht that was so funny when Dad asked if you knew your way back!!
I was just thinking that! lol
😂😂 Typical Dutch dad!
Dad “do you know your way back?”
Stayed in Rotterdam for almost 9 months, but I never had such a detailed understanding of this issue. It is certainly very informative.
Bijzonder hoe jij ons stukjes van ons land laat zien. Geniet van je creatieve manier van weergeven. Ga zo door.👍
Nice to meet your Mum and Dad, and learn some history from Dad's encyclopedic knowledge. Love the way he checked if you know how to get back after you've been around the world alone so much !!!!
I am touched by the love and affection of your parents.You are a blessed child to be born in such a nice family in a beautiful country.This episode is a tribute to Dutch engineering. Looking forward to many more interesting episodes from you, Noraly. All the best to you.
What a treat to see you and your folks together and all talking in your own language. Charming. And then there is the serious side of the conversation relating the events of 1953. Wow. Our Southern Ontario Hurricane Hazel came one year later in the fall of 1954. Still remembered because Hurricanes are a Very rare event here in Ontario.
Such an interesting episode. And seeing the big caissons with your drone... how they drifted out of line and then got stuck in time. Great stuff.
Speaking as a father of 3 beautiful daughters. Something are unchangable and a fathers love for his daughters is one of those things. I will hopefully be 80 someday and I will still defend them and look out for then as if they had just been born.
Being from South Africa and able to speak Afrikaans i can actually follow Dutch. Stay safe Dude
Me too.....
It works the other way around too. Though easier if you read it (out loud)
It works the other way around as well. ;)
From southern CA, USA...I actually understood the family titles (grandmother, grandfather, uncle, aunt) as they are sometimes (rarely, not often) used in the USA.
I understood a lot. I took Afrikaans as my second language at school
9:50 Amazing, about 6 months ago I sat on that exact location and did a drawing of that barrier in my notebook. I really miss Rotterdam, sadly I had to move back home.
I was a big WW2 history nut. Amazing stories. Great Dad and your a wonderful person in the netherlands or any continent.
The caissons were part of a massive project called Mulberry Harbours. Construction of massive floating concrete blocks for D Day landings were made possible by the hard work of many people. My Grandfather was one of them. He told me as a young boy stories of how a man could fall asleep standing up whilst digging with a shovel. How despite illness, lack of food and sleep they kept on working. I hope that the world we live in would appreciate more how blessed we are to have all that we do have. I love Holland and have visited many times. A wonderful country with so many kind people. Happy riding. Love from England.
Zierikzee @15:10 when you drove through the archway into this fairytale Dutch village with a windmill too was amazing 👏
Holland has some hidden gems 💎
Thanks for sharing Noraly
Wow - that video simply flew by - fascinating! I was only 1 1/2 years old when that flood happened, but I asked mom. She remembers hearing about it on the radio and in the newspaper. (We were in rural Kentucky, USA at that time). Your explanations of the dams is so interesting. We humans can come up with some pretty fantastic feats of engineering. This is right up there with Norway's mad skills at blasting through entire mountain ranges. (Bit of the opposite problem for The Netherlands)! And the, some ancient by now, terraced mountainsides to grow rice, etc.
I'm going to look up a couple of the storm surge structures you mentioned to figure out why the water doesn't just find another route. Not all of them appeared to have berms to hold the water. Obviously something is there.
Thank you so much! The personal touch with your dad, hearing his stories, seeing where your people lived...and died...makes it ever so much 'closer to home'. And gorgeous drone footage, as always. I also really enjoyed hearing the Dutch conversation. Definitely some "freebie" words in there because they sound like the German word, but not even close to enough words to just rock over from German into Dutch. :D
Hey Noraly, I’m from south Belgium and was born in 53. As a Child I heard about the big floodings in the Netherlands. I’ve been in Zeeland several times for holidays, but never seen the entire anti flooding works. Very interresting vidéo. Thanks. John
Thank you for showing your beautiful home land The Netherlands. I am from Singapore, we are adopting the land reclamation engineering design and experience from your specialists. Awesome video !
Brought tears to my eyes, your grandfather was a strong loving, caring man! And I am the same age as your father, he is a lovely man, he loves his daughter too, as I have one daughter of four children! Thank you for sharing this closeness you have with your parents!! Your mother was filing you as you arrived!! I am an engineer so I appreciate the barriers you showed us!! Thanks for your drone videos!!
Hello... Wow... I'm very impressed with the engieering .., and even more impressed with you sharing your life and family history with us. Thank you, thank you, thank you...Good job with the cameras and the editing. You, your mum and dad are superstars !!! Blijf veilig tijdens uw reizen !!! :-)
Extremely impressive engineering by the Dutch to protect the Homeland! Very informative info in this video. Danke Noraly.
Hi I am from New Zealand:). Able Tasman was dutch and discovered some parts of New Zealand. I could tell you had good parents by your adventurous and brave spirit. It was lovely to meet them
That was an amazing trip around your country today. Incredible history and very informative. I'm ready for the next one! "Let's go!"
thank you, I knew about the land reclamation of Holland but I had no idea of the extent of it, if life ever returns to normal I will come to revisit my birthplace
Ik ben daar zo vaak geweest, maar zoals ik het nu zie met deze beelden is het toch fantastisch om dit te zien. de volgende keer als ik daar voorbij rij ga ik het op een andere manier zien en beleven.
Noraly, you have no idea how much your"Good Morning Internet" has won millions of hearts!!!
I love the fatherly concern..after you have travelled half the globe yr Dad ask if you k ow out 😁👍👍 loved this video
This is so interesting. This is the second time I'm watching this. I remember reading about all this in school and now to see these videos it is so good. I love sitting on the couch and going places I know I will never get to. Thank you for making these videos. They are worth alot.
wow, Thank you for sharing this bit of Dutch history. I also enjoyed hearing you and your father speak in your language. I love hearing different languages I enjoyed this a lot.
Thank you for your very interesting episodes: my husband and I love watching and learning about your travels. We live the Channel Islands.
My condolences to your family, and your dad who appears to be in good shape. I bet he is the one who told you to get back up if you fall down. It is always good when you have family support, because we all have the ability to do whatever we set our minds to do no matter how many barriers stand in our way. The hardest struggles in life will always be those barriers we try to cross.
This was a wonderful video. Enjoyed meeting your parents and seeing this piece of Dutch history.
The Delta works have fascinated me since I first visited the site on school trip in 1982 (I was 12 years old at the time, I'm Flemish, by the way). Since then, Zeeland is a place where my family and myself eally feel at home and we visit the area frequently. In any case, the Delta Works are very impressive to see, and they, as well as the whole of Zeeland, will keep on fascinating me forever.
I am absolutely delighted with your educational tour of your country. Thank you, Itchy.
I really like this format of picking a specific subject, and then going to various locations that are relevant to that subject. I was not aware of this flood event, or the steps that the Netherlands has taken to keep it from happening again.
Your parents seem very nice.
We drove over them last year ,love the question from your dad about finding way home ,that's a father's love for his daughter .
I love the background music you used in this video blog. I know Celine Dion sang this in here concert, titled " A New Day" What an engineering marvel you Dutch people have done to your country. Amazing! Subscriber from the Philippines.
These three episodes on your country were excellent. Very helpful and informative. Beautiful country by the way. Thanks for the tour.
