Giethoorn, a Village Without Roads

Posted: 12 Jul 2013 11:47 AM PDT

Giethoorn is a village in the Dutch province of Overijssel. It's called "Venice of the Netherlands." In the old part of the village, there were no roads (nowadays there is a cycling path), and all transport was done by water over one of the many canals. The lakes in Giethoorn were formed by peat unearthing.

Dream of High School Prom Comes True

The girl in the red dress looks like a normal girl dressed for a prom, but there is a very good story behind this photo.






































15 year old Isabelle Papandronicou had her leg amputated due to a congenital disease. Isabelle was dreaming about attending her school prom in high heels. But she was fitted with a conventional prosthetic leg that meant she was limited to wearing flat shoes. Her parents helped raise the funds for the new leg, which cost $9,000 and Isabelle was able to attend prom in high heels.
