Day 3 – Wednesday 7 August 2024
The boat arrived at Veere about 06:00, rafted on the port side to MS Normandie, a Dutch river cruiser much shorter than Scenic Jasper so our cabin view wasn’t obstructed.

We took the walking tour in intermittent rain showers which left at the civilised time of 09:30. Veere is a small, not particularly interesting, town of brick houses with a small harbour that used to be important. We were back on board at 10:40.
After lunch one could wander into the town again but we stayed on board for a Dixie quartet who were jolly good.
Belgians playing and singing American Dixie on an Australian owned ship to an audience of Australians, Brits, North Americans and Germans.
The boat sailed for Antwerp about 15:45 and we had a delightful afternoon sitting at the bow outside the glassed panorama lounge while the boat sailed across the Mere occasionally sounding its horn to warn off boats in its path.
