Crossing

FMG © 2011

At the mouth of the Scheldt , it is on one side Breskens and other Vlissingen, two small Dutch towns not devoid of charm. The distance between them is about 6 kilometers. For years, a ferry connected the two towns, carrying cars and trucks (for a small fee), but also bicycles and pedestrians (for free).

Since 2003, this association was abolished and replaced by the Westerschelde . The 6 miles became 60, with the toll for the tunnel. When is content to be on foot or bicycle, it is nevertheless always possible to crossing on a ferry smarter and faster. It does not have the same charm wild before, but when it gets too bright (albeit cold) today, it's not unpleasant. If it's only free, the return journey now costs EUR 4.60 per person, which is still cheap.

Whatever ... this trip always gives so much pleasure. For a small twenty minutes, you feel in another world, another rhythm, another truth. The rites of passage - with all their constraints whose meaning does not always clear - I was never too interested. They should be as simple as this passage: you walk a little, you climb some stairs, we sit and let yourself go with the slow pace of the ferry itself leaves gently rocked by waves silky. Without really realizing it, you get the other side: we get up as if nothing had happened, we descend a few steps and then walk long it takes.

If all crossings and passages were all so simple, it would help a lot of things. Here, no need for resolutions, parties or other forced challenges. Just happy to get to the other side! And even back by the same path. But in return, you feel different: one could go there and back, in the simplicity of the crossing.
