Despite some unpleasant events prior to the festivities organized on the occasion of the annual blessing of the Scheldt -- the authorities destroyed a work of "recyclart" in progress and a bailiff sealed off the Consulate of Ruigoord artists where a photo exhibition was scheduled -- most planned events went ahead anyway and about 15,000 tot 20,000 people visited the village of Doel on 8 August, thus sending a highly significant signal to the Flemish government and port authority.
