* Arno’s short description of the area we stayed at:

The Dutch canal was actually a river! The Zaan river (hence the names Zaandam — the dam in the Zaan; Koog aan de Zaan — the piece of land near the Zaan river that despite not being diked doesnt flood; and Zaandijk — the dike in the Zaan). My house is in Koog aan de Zaan, the skatepark is on the edge of Koog aan de Zaan and Zaandijk, that skeleton windmill is Zaandijk, while the boat picture is taken in Wormerveer. Wormerveer means Wormer-Ferry, Wormer is the place on the other side of the river, those buildings in the background. Wormer is also where I grew up, the Wormer punk scene was pretty well known for bands playing Membranes/Crass/Gang of Four style punk and for DIY releases since 1979.
