In June of 2018 Lori and I flew to Helsinki, Finland and spent several days there.
Next we flew to Riga, Latvia and spent several days there also.
Then we flew to Amsterdam and visited that city for a few days. After Amsterdam we took a train to Rotterdam
and stayed at the New York Hotel on Rotterdam's Wilhelmina Pier in the harbor.
This building was the headquarters of the Holland America Line built in the early 1900's.
This served as the gateway for nearly two million Europeans emigrants sailing to America.
The building was reopened as a hotel in 1993 and preserves its rich history.
We met our friends Jerry and Renee on the pier the next day and the four of us boarded a Holland America ship bound for Boston. We stopped in Bergen, Norway, the Shetland Islands, three stops in Iceland, two stops
in Greenland, then pulled into the harbor of St Johns on Newfoundland and Labrador.
After getting off the boat we started walking up the hill to see some of the sights in the town.
In typical Canadian fashion, a woman offered to drive us up the hill, which we gladly excepted.
After she dropped us off we entered the Basilica Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist.
​The painting of Jesus above the alter is spectacular.
To emphasize this I only print this image in black and white with the painting in color.
​Below is a detail from the image.
