A Conversation for Wonderful Rivers

Or as locals might say "Saen". It is a tiny river flowing past my home town (Wormer in the Netherlands). It actually still is the heart of the industry here. Our area is so crowded, that it is hard for trucks to get here. It's much easier for the goods to be transported by boat.
The main products that can be seen floating by are: cocoa powder, flour, rice and sand. (At least that I know of.)
I used to work in an office that was situated besides a bend in the river where we could see all the boats for quite a ways.
Sahi.
