Another Dutch tradition

He everybody,

Besides windmills and wooden shoes we have another tradition in Holland.
It's called Sinterklaas (Saint Nicholas). We celebrate this on the 5th of december every year with presents. Just like Santa Claus with X-mas. The tradition goes back centuries.
Hope you'll like the picture. Maybe this pic has been posted earlier, before I joined this forum. But still, a nice pic.

(btw, the picture was taken in 1947)



Regards,

Ramon

Re: Another Dutch tradition

Now we know how Zwarte Piet got his black face. He stood behind a Triumph as the Sint swung through. It's nothing to do with Moorish servants.
