Rotterdam to Antwerp Canal Cruise Through Zeeland Pode
The narrator describes a day long steamer trip from Antwerp to Rotterdam, gliding through Zeeland canals past village girls in bright dress, Dutch landscapes, and locks. The voyage passes from damp dawn to rainy skies, with vivid scenes of clothing, helmets, and canal life, ending with Rotterdam’s parks, markets, and a note of its Philadelphia-like charm.
