  6. Quote of the day, 23 February: St. Titus Brandsma

    “Following orders, today I was forced to declare that I am not a member of the Jewish race. Obviously, I am pure Frisian. But this is very painful for the Jews. I must stand alongside them.”

    St. Titus Brandsma
    27 October 1941

    The fire never died out in Oegeklooster on the frigid night between 21-22 February 1881. The Brandsmas were impatiently awaiting the birth of a new shoot. It would be their fifth.

    The newcomer was born in the early hours of 23 February, and his arrival filled the entire family of hardworking farmers with joy. It was a boy, another pair of hands to work their enormous farm.

    Overcome with gratitude the father fell to his knees, thanking God because at last his four daughters had been joined by the hoped-for male heir. Following this newborn son, there was to be another brother.

    Everyone who saw the infant praised his delicate complexion and agreed that he looked like his mother.

    In accord with the old ways, that same afternoon the entire family hurried to the parish church to baptize the newcomer. He was given typically Frisian names: Anno Sjoerd. St. Anno had been a famous Bishop of Cologne who had founded monasteries in the northern part of Europe around 1056.

    Miguel Arribas, O.Carm.

    Chapter 1, A shoot from good stock (excerpt)

    Note: Anno Sjoerd Brandsma was born to Tjitsje and Titus Brandsma on 23 February 1881 at Wonseradeel in Friesland, a province in the very north of Holland. The Brandsma family consisted of four girls and two boys, of which Titus was the second youngest. Five of the siblings would later enter religious life.

  12. Der erste deutsche #ElektroKatamaran, der seit April #Norddeich mit #Norderney verbindet, steht wegen #Getriebeproblemen vorübergehend still.

    Die Reederei #Frisia betont, dass die #Elektronik nicht betroffen sei. Man spricht von „Kinderkrankheiten“ bei einem neuartigen System.

    Der 8,5 Millionen Euro teure E-Katamaran soll nach der Reparatur schnell wieder in Betrieb gehen. Er halbiert die Fahrzeit im Vergleich zu herkömmlichen Fähren.

  17. CW: Long Post about Vacation, Happy

    So my wife already posted but I figured I would give my two cents/approach from a different perspective for the vacation. I've never been this far north in Continental Europe. The people in Schleswig-Holstein/Frisia are built different. They lost Rungholt to the sea and they never really forgave. It's basically Frisian Atlantis. They've spent 400 years trying to reclaim it from the sea.

    Their lives come with the tide, and leave with the tide. It leads to a more laid back and familiar way of approaching Germanness. I've been having to speak German now at work and in life for a long time. This is the first time I ever felt like I was a part of the culture. I was a part of the experience.

    It was nice to have
    @thatfrisiangirlish and my interplay make people laugh. I even had to make an emergency phone call when we were delayed by a double whammy of traffic in Bremen and Hamburg. No help required. No clarification required. I never had someone switch to english for me, ask where I was from or whatever. I was just there and I didn't feel forced.

    The collossal amount of effort I have put into learning German and integrating really paid off. It took almost four years to get to this point. Another cool and interesting thing was how our queer status made us unique enough to approach. Not to say we received a homophobia, anything but. Being one of the lesbian couples gave us a uniqueness that people sought us out to talk to us. A very rewarding experience given how awful things were in my home country and still increasingly are.

    I found the Frisians open enough to really feel invited but German enough that my boundaries were never even pushed slightly. I learned a lot and I don't think I've ever had a vacation that was half so rewarding or a quarter so relaxed. We will visit again, Frisia.

  22. Mit der #EFähre auf hoher See

    Die #Frisia #E1 ist das erste #seetaugliche #Elektroschiff unter #deutscher #Flagge. Die Fähre pendelt zwischen #Norddeich und der #Nordseeinsel Norderney. Mit ihren 16 Knoten benötigt der #Katamaran nur 30 Minuten für die elf Kilometer lange Strecke – das ist im Vergleich zur Dieselfähre eine Halbierung der Fahrzeit. Leise, sanft und schnell geht es durch das #Naturschutzgebiet im #Wattenmeer.
