Hunting the hooker snowglobe
My daughter got a very cute snow globe from the red light district during her visit a few years ago. Unfortunately, it disappeared and, with the new apartment, she wanted help in finding a replacement.
‘Nothing else to do but head toward the Red Light District near Oude Kerk and prowl the souvenir shops while I was in town. I hadn’t been down there since Queen’s Day a few years ago: it’s still bustling and seems unaffected by recent attempts by the City Fathers to discourage it’s scope and trade.
As for the snowglobes, the pickings were a bit slim (at least, for anything approaching tasteful):
In the end, common sense prevailed: a Maxima tee is the safe choice (Father to Daughter).
Now I have to start thinking about Mother’s Day… Belgian chocolates or Dutch tulips?
