Good morning from Veere!
Last evening we enjoyed our cocktail reception on board and then sampled 5 beers (with mixed reviews) during the beer tasting on board the ship. We sailed overnight and are now docked in Veered, Netherlands.
Located in the Zeeland province, Veered is a quaint little Dutch town. Previously a leading player in the European wool trade and then as a fishing town, it is now a small quiet place generating much of its income from tourism.
Many of us headed out on an excursion to the Delta Works. This is an impressive engineering marvel working to keep the country safe from flooding. There was a video and some ventured out (in the wind) to walk on the barrier itself.
Back on board (not before stopping at the town's candy shop) for lunch while we sail to Middleburg, the capital of Zeeland.
