  huaaaaaaaaa... today.. completely exhausted! woke up too early but went off the bed too late... huahuaua.. typical me... didnt eat breakfast so took the boiled eggs with me but suddenly i remember that eating eggs in the bus is not a very sophisticated thing to do! so.. i had to keep all the hunger with me along the day! today, i visited boutrange. the location is near to German border. only 2 kilometres away.
its a fort. an old fort built by dutch in the 16 centruy. 1580 for certain. dutch people created this fort as a defence from spanish army when they had the war back then. the fort was almost completely abandoned and the inhabitants needed money for the restoration. they asked for the contribution from the major of groningen but didnt succeed.
they went to King William, king of holland, but also failed. so, they renovated the fort with their own money and hands. the youngsters slowly went off to the city to get a better living by working in the big city, most of went to groningen. once again, the fort abondened. to save the fort and the inhabitants which gain their money from becoming farmers had to come up with the idea how to save their surrounding from tumbling down. so, they decided to renovate and open the fort for tourists attraction.
this idea leads the boutrange as a place for the visitors to enjoy their times with families and the inhabitants find their neighbourhood as a place just like the old days they used to live in. if you want to see pictures from boutrange just click urlLink boutrange neighbourhood ok? now let me have a good sleep... let dream about you ok? ciao ciao.., Alia
