it probably be pretty cool to grow up here
I have spent the last two days out in the Duthc countryside. First I visisted the smaller town of Haarlem. Kinda of a cool place it was sort of like a mini-Amsterdam. After this I headed to the Kaucenhoff ? which is a huge 100 acre tulips garden. I have some amazing pictures which i really like to up soon. The next day i rented a bike and head far out in the counrtyside across dikes and around old villages and windmills...it reminded me of the delta back home somewhat. The land here is very new as the dutch are always pushing the sea back to make more land for their small country. Certainly a high light of the trip.
