Subject: Re: Mar23. 2023. Dordrecht**. Thank you…. For posting. **. Especially with map**
Dear Leopold,
I found the map. Very informative. My knowledge of Belgium/Holland
is low so it was also helpful for me to see it.
Didn't see any brochures at
the airport for Amsterdam & usually in the past - maps of the country with various cities to visit but nothing or didn't try to look either.
Cheers
Angela.

... a meeting with Anne deJongh in Holland ...
Dear Fellow internees of Weihsien.
At the 2015 Weihsien reunion I was to meet. Louise de Jongh & her
Daughter, Jeannette & they took the same train with my husband Tom & I to Tientsin,
or Tianjin as it is called now. We spent a day visiting St Louis Church & our
School. St Joseph's which housed a chinese school but was vacated.
On March 18, 2022 my daughter Ayesha & I flew to Amsterdam & travelled
by train just an hour away to visit Louise's sister Anne Knüppe de Jongh
on Mar 23 in Dordrecht - one of the oldest towns in Holland. It was wonderful
to meet Anne in her lovely apartment & talk of Weihsien & Tientsin. Anne treated
my daughter Ayesha & myself to a delicious lunch by the water on a warm sunny
day. Although we didnt know each other previously as I was born in Weihsien
(1943) & Anne was a young girl then. We still shared much in common & I was
so happy to have met her & of course Louise too.
