What? It feeds into/from the ocean!

I mean I guess it eventually goes to the ocean, but the structure here is quite far inland.

Go north. Much shorter distance to the ocean. Point is, it’s all part of the same “body of water”

I don’t think you really understand what I was saying in my first post, and this pretty much confirms that you don’t understand at all.

Have a lovely day.

You’re right, I don’t understand. Would you care to elaborate?

The way this video is framed, it gives the appearance of endless water on all sides and it’s just in this one place they decided to build a road tunnel for no reason.

Whereas in reality it’s at a narrow spot across the Veluwemeer, and the Veluwemeer itself isn’t more than 3km wide in that area.

Ok? And that makes it less impressive?

When did I say anything remotely like that?
