' Briggs’ write of
trip to Holland
The following letter was writ-
ton from Germany by Mrs. Rich
ard Briggs to her mother-in-law,
Mrs. A. J. Briggs of Newberry.
It is being published since we feel
that it will be of general interest
to our readers.
The Briggs’ are on a tour of
duty in Germany with the U. S.
Air Force.
Dear Peoples,
Thought I’d make a carbon copy
so you could have this letter with
no more delay. Am at work wait
ing for Dick to pick me up.
We left Wednesday morning,
went to Cologne (KOLN), saw the
imperial cathedral there; slept on
the autobahn in the car fairly
comfortably at a lighted gas sta
tion. We’d taken two blankets, a
pillow, and food along. Went on
across the Dutch border, had
breakfast, went through Arnheim,
Utrecht (Reformation town, I
think.) Rotterdam, the second lar
gest port in the world, has con
fusing canals threading through
out the entire city, and is split in
to two sections by the Maas river.
However, they have built mam
moth tunnel under the river which
we crossed several times. It was
free.
Then on to Delft where they
have the world-famous Porcelain
Fles factory; there they make
blue hand-painted porcelain. Then
into the Hague; huge but without
city privileges, this is the seat of
the Dutch government and the
residence of the royal family.
Many large and very ornate build
ings.
Something we found particular
ly interesting. In Germany, farm
ers do not actually live on their
farmland. Instead, the acreage is
planted entirely and they live in
a small community; it is in this
township that their houses and
barns are. There is a distinct sep
aration of farmland and living
land. But in Holland, farmers live
in houses either attached to or
near their barns on their fields
like ours do; of course they have
canals—large deep ones around
the rim of their land, and shallow
ones cut through it at intervals
for irrigation.
Prom the Hague we went to
Amsterdam where we stayed over
night in a hotel; Sat am we shop
ped, bought a Delft plate, and
charms. Saw something of the city
and harbors. Their canals are as
full of traffic as their streets. We
plan to return one weekend and
see more of Amsterdam; it’s here
that Anne Frank lived. It’s not
far for a straight trip.
We went up north and rode
over the dyke which cuts off the
Zuider Zee from the North Sea
(Atlantic) and made it change
to a fresh water lake. Very blue;
we stopped before going over and
waded in the North Sea; can’t
remember the town’s name, was
on the tip of the peninsula before
crossing the dykes. It was a typ
ical beach resort area, but old
fashioned.
The Dutch are slowly dredging
to remove water from this huge
lake to form three artificial land
masses; we saw this dredging be
ing done inland. Went through*
Leeuwarden toward the German
border; now the houses are get
ting huge and are more like res
idences reflecting what must be
a wealthy farming area. Over here
in Europe houses and barns are
built together because of the
snow and cold winters. These
houses were the largest complexes
we’ve seen; some even had two
additional barns attached to the
orignial. They are big cattle and
dairy people.
At first, these houses will fool
you; you won’t realize they’re so
big, but never have less than 3
stories (always a floor in 4 the at
tic) and usually more. They also
have thatched roofs and elaborate
facades. Before leaving Holland,
we stopped at a local farm-town
store; bought some swieback and

man. From Harburg, we go NW
to the Danish border near Flens-
burg. This is a very mountainous
route, rich and beautiful. Houses
become white and large.
We crossed the border here,
quite a production; first time we
were really stopped and had to
get our passports stamped. Usual

The yha^e smaller houses here,

less prosjpferous or not concerned

church near the harbor and walked
around taking pictures. Here is a
little mermaid (die lil havre frsu)
which sympolizes Denmark for
their people. Her head was cut
off once as a prank and the whole
country went up in arms.. They
found it, and soldered it back on:
you can barely seen the line if
you’re up close. They use a look
of bronze for their statues in this
city, and statues are everywhere.
You can see why Copenhagen is
so famous; it really does have
everything here. We drooled at the
fabulously cheap pirices oi* things
we’d loved to have bought. Spent
a long time here; can’t go back
since it’s too far. We took the fer
ry across the baltic sea for $10 in
a ship which was like an ocean
liner. We went through customs
at the harbor before boarding.

through Hamburg, Kasep, Frank

road again; the ferry fares really
hit us hard. Found out later from -
a German friend that German
customs really charge for bring
ing in the rug we wanted. . We
want to get it mailed home if any
friends go over. MJ left yesterday
but without our address.
We got in Monday A.M.; loafed

there’s no change, but I ordered
new glasses—$3.50 for everything
and also got a spare prescription.
