Over nachtelijk Europa.

Western Europe from the ISS, by André Kuipers, Dutch physician and ESA astronaut.

I really don't know why my first thought was the campfire song, Barges:

"Out of my window looking through the night I can see the barges' flickering lights.
Silently flows the water to the sea and the barges too flow silently.
Barges, I would like to go with you, I would like to sail the ocean blue.
Barges, is there treasure in your hold? Do you fight with pirates brave and bold?
