Throughout Europe Saturday is shopping day! It's great fun to visit food and flee markets, browse in shops, find an art fair, watch street theater, listen to aspiring musicians or sit in a park and do nothing.
Kampen Holland a historic, small city of 32,000 described as a typical, lively waterfront place was our destination.

We have a collection of art from painters around the world.
The only rule when purchasing is the artist (who must be present) has to smile for the camera.
A photo is then attached on the backside of the piece.
This artist was so elated and proud to sell her work, she was beaming!!
A colorful daisy reminded us of the free spirit seen in so many Dutch people.

Two toe tapping, strawberry-blond flutists captured our attention.
They played their hearts out while Mom sipped coffee (and maybe had ice cream) at a cafe across the street.
She had her radar on, reminding musicians a little giggling was OK,
but to keep on task.
I also had to have a lovely turquoise, orange and pink bracelet.
The 12 year old beader was so appreciative of a sale.
Europeans encourage kids to expand their horizons beyond a lemonade stand.
In Bamberg a couple of weeks ago, at the flee market,
a special area showcased kids hawking "gently used" toys and clothing.
