This page describes my visit to the "19th eleven-city old-timer tour" on May 22nd 2004. My father played in Dokkum with his bigband called The Northern Swingband. Dokkum is a small city of 14.500 inhabitants in the northern parts of the Netherlands.

Besides listening to the band and watching the beautiful old-timers, I found some time to make a few photographs...

Even some Harley Davidsons could be found!
