Lay down flowers in our village!

The flower piece Mom and I made this afternoon for the the Remembrance of the Dead ceremonies in our village tonight which we laid down at the monument….....

Tonight at half passed 7 we have driven to the village centre of our village for the Remembrance of the Dead at 8:00PM . When we arrived there it still was rather quiet, but within a couple minutes it all of a sudden became very busy. There was small orchestra of 2 girls and 2 boys and 1 boy who played The Last Post on his trumpet.

The orchestra.....

After the 2 minutes of silence a wreath of flowers was laid down by a man from the municipality house and there was a speech after that. Then everyone could lay down his flowers and I also laid down my piece of flowers.

That’s me placing my flowers at the monument….....

At the end the orchestra played the National Song “Het Wilhelmus” and everyone sang along. It was very beautiful all those people singing.

Here everyone already went home….

It was a very beautiful ceremony…..

Go upstairs… bye ….see you tomorrow!
