School’s out, Dutch style
Posted May 29th, 2008 by Sheila
This is a frequent sight around neighborhoods in the Netherlands this time of year.
Hanging from the front of the house, usually somehow connected with a Dutch flag, is a backpack.
The really clever ones have artfully connected and arranged papers and books spilling out of them.
What is it?
A way to demonstrate that someone in that household has finished school.
Let the summer begin!
