O Mi Gosh - that is such a wonderful place - Froona's translated website - I have only just read the first 2 pages - the "tribute" & "living memory" pages -
Oh My, I'm crying just a little bit again but in such a good way - thank you everyone who contributed to make it possible to experience Froona's site in English plus it will be wonderful to see the whole gallery of 2009's "Froona" eyases! (I wonder how many there are?)

"Day 1 - Day 12" pictures are now "translated". (and still 36 to go :| )
But, as you already know, Froona used some special kind of Dutch, "Froona Passionated Dutch".

It's a heck of a job to translate and still keeping her style and humor in it.

So any, and I mean any, correction on my mistake(s) is welcome.

Thanks in advance.

Good on you Ruud for yr commitment to the job :neth :bravo

I was always impressed with how very good Froona's english was but I wasn't aware that she also used "Passionated Dutch" - she certainly was a very "rich" being Image

"Passionated Dutch" -- love that phrase. :rainbow Rudd, you are a special person to volunteer so much of your time to preserve Froona's work, and bless you for trying so hard to maintain her humor in the translation. :flowers I can't even imagine how hard that would be between languages!

Just a time out, to make some necessary corrections in HTML and Javascript codes.

I hope it will be online again in a couple of days.

Hi Ruud - We all have SGB to thank for the quick recovery today.

And we all have you to thank for another wonderful English installment on Froona's Web site. The new page on mythology was beautifully written, translated, and illustrated. Thanks so much!

:bravo
