W is for Wheels and Women

© Photos by Kay Davies and Richard Schear    



Shy pedi-cab driver taking a break.
When I consulted my husband about the letter W, he thought for a moment, then said "Wheels." Then he thought a while longer, "And women," he added, although I knew he wasn't out taking pictures of women when my back was turned.
The place for wheels in Europe is Amsterdam, with its ubiquitous bicycles (and a few other kinds of wheeled transportation).






Bicycles parked alongside canals and against bridge railings.

Wheels in Brussels, Belgium

Women: our tour guide and the captain of the Amsterdam canal boat were both highly-qualified women.

Women with wheels.

Women with attitude!
And, finally, women with blogs:

"Reader Wil" met me for a visit in Kinderdijk, in The Netherlands.


Mara met us for a visit in Amsterdam.

Gattina, from Waterloo, met us for a tour of Brussels.
We also met Debbie and Stijn in Brussels, but didn't have a camera with us.



Posted for ABC Wednesday, started by
Mrs. Nesbitt in the UK, and carried on by her faithful team.
