Want to buy a pier....?

..... Then this is the moment. The “Pier of Scheveningen” in the Netherlands is
supposed to be auctioned in May this year.
The pier was opened in 1961 by Bernhard, Prince of the Netherlands. Now in
2013 it is derelict and falling apart.




It is good to walk here; in the wind, high above the sea. Especially in winter, when there are almost no people around.

 The view of Scheveningen. Chairs left behind in warmer days....

The casino and restaurant

The belvedere and the adventure island

 It is obvious that something has to be done, although this decay has its own beauty.

What is this for?? Kind of slide into the sea.....

Well is this the end of the Pier in Scheveningen? 

Or is it still standing strong enough for another bright future?

 I really hope the Pier will resist this special storm and will stay there for us to enjoy the waves and storms for many years to come.....
