This 'captain' (please notice the quotation marks) has done some shopping by boat. Can you imagine that he prefers doing it this way rather than by car? (☺)

Image was taken in one of the canals of Haarlem, province of North Holland, The Netherlands.

A bit of Manic Monday.

Very nice shot with the cars on either side and the "old sailor" with the motor boat. Yes definitely in this case faster than by car.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.

This is a good one Mr. C. By the looks of the gentleman, he looks like a sailor, and water lover. Good one for today, and I love those ripples.

well, Mr.C...i can see why he does from all the parked cars. cant help to wonder how many cars accidently end up in the drink...guard rail or not. lol it has to happen.

I like the 'captains' cap and beard the most. i also wonder if theres a stowaway elf in the vessel

I would love to shop via boat - it sounds much better to me than the traffic and car horns honking - unusual and excellent capture Mr. C.

Whoa, now that's a super way to travel through this gorgeous scene with no parking spots available - love that building in the distance with the brick work

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
