Travel Blogs from Netherlands
a wallet thinner
This is a top pick! Curaçao is the C island within the ABC group of Caribbean islands.. It's had and kept close colonial ties with the Dutch, which unlike many in the carib. who have shunned them, has resulted in an island with good infrastructure. On the big bridge that ...
Aimlessly in Amsterdam
This is a top pick! 2nd part of New York is currently work in progress ..... sorry... You know the saying when someone says "If I had a dollar for every XXXX, I would be very rich" - well if I got a dollar for each bicycle in Amsterdam, I could travel the world for a ...
Goodbye Holland
This is a top pick! We've had so many good people of Holland spoiling us in the short 6 days we've been here, we were sad to say goodbye to all the good eating, drinking and attention. My cousin Wilma has broken her neck to provide everything we've needed and for that we ...
Moving to Permanent Housing
This is a top pick! Chris arrived on April 12 for 10 days to help move everything into our permanent housing in the center of Amsterdam. The kitties are VERY excited to see him. We think they might have been worried that they would only have one "parent". All of our ...
North Sea Jazz and Amersfoort
This is a top pick! ... Sea Jazz Festival has been a 3 day festival held in Den Haag (The Hague). There are over 16 stages of performers in the Netherlands Congress Center (so inside, not out) with over 200 acts over 3 days. It's a little expensive and we weren't sure what to ...
Amsterdam - another Disneyland?
This is a top pick! ... seems to know English and there seem to be as many American-style resturants as there are of those of the Netherlands' former colony, Indonesia. Though Amsterdam has a reputation as a financial and brokerage centre, that is not obvious to the ...
No More Overnight Buses
This is a top pick! We have come to major decision arriving in Amsterdam at 4AM after very little sleep. We refuse to travel on any more overnight buses! Feeling very tired and exhausted we wandered around but could not find any hostels open at such a late (early hour) ...
Leidseplein Area, Amsterdam
This is a top pick! My perspective towards Amsterdam was starting to become negatively stifled by the area I was staying. I can't believe how much my perspective has changed by venturing out to the Oud-West and Museumkwartier areas - about a 30 minute walk south of the Red ...
Amsterdam, Netherlands
This is a top pick! ... before him. We thanked our hosts and departed Germany. I was very happy with my experience. Today is Queens Day in the Netherlands, which means that everyone dresses up in Orange and gets smashed in the streets. The queen's birthday is sort of like St. ...
Dutch flower fields
This is a top pick! Hi everybody! It's tulip season so we went for a drive in flower field country today. This is one of the first really beautiful spring days and lots of people were out admiring the fields. The children enjoyed running between the rows of flowers and ...
Lazy in Amsterdam
This is a top pick! We had to get up at about 5:30am in order to catch our train at the station at 7:30am. We could have paid a reservation fee and got the highspeed train and left at 10:30am instead but at 30 euros each just to reserve a seat we figured getting up ...
Amsterdam Happenings
This is a top pick! ... in May/June there is a great exhibit of press photos sponsored by World Press Photo. Since its foundation in the Netherlands in 1955, World Press Photo has evolved into an independent platform of photojournalism with its main aim to support and promote ...
Amsterdam Jewish Sites and windmills
This is a top pick! ... a memorial. It includes a wall listing the 6,700 family names (including Susan's maiden name) of the 104,000 Jews from The Netherlands who were murdered in the war. Chris and I had known that a theater had been used in this way, but we ...
Where have all the blog entries gone?
This is a top pick! By now most of you have noticed that the frequency of our blog entries has dramatically reduced from the early days, seven years ago, when entries were fast and furious. What, you may ask, has happened? Well, a number of things, actually. 1) ...
The Shelter
This is a top pick! I've booked my train ticket for Amsterdam to Munich for Saturday night... should take about 10 hours. I'm kind of glad I'm only staying in Amsterdam for 4 nights now - I think I've done it justice. The city itself is kind of boring me now - after a few ...
Sex, Drugs and, um, Goth
This is a top pick! Since I had free accommodation and a couple different friends to visit in Amsterdam I had nearly a week to play around. It's amazing what a difference it makes when you have six days for a city instead of two or three. When I was in Berlin in July I ...
Back to Amsterdam
This is a top pick! I was out in probably less than 5 minutes last night. Couldn't even remeber trying to get to sleep. Ashlee House in London turned out to be one of those hostels I can highly recommend for other budget travellers to London. Many times better than the ...
Something dodgy
This is a top pick! Because we ended up flying into Amsterdam rather than getting the bus, which we had of course already paid for, we had to console ourselves with the fact that we got a passport stamp, whereas on a bus you don't usually get one. It was also the beginning ...
Week 1 including Easter weekend
This is a top pick! After almost a week in our new apartment, it is still a mess! I think we're finally realizing just how much stuff we have! On April 23 Chris has to go back to the U.S. to finish working through the end of the month. So, our goal of this week has been ...
Melanie's Mom's visit
This is a top pick! ... the wall ends a bank of high tech windmills can be seen. The sea wall ends in the newest province of The Netherlands, Flevoland. The landmass of Flevoland was reclaimed in the 1950s and became the 12th province of the Netherlands. It's pretty dull ...
Back in Amsterdam
This is a top pick! This is just a placeholder entry to make the map pins work out ...
Polder Survival
This is a top pick! After a week in Chicago, Melanie's first day back at the office ended in a company outing that could only be Dutch. The whole department went to the countryside to traipse across fields of reclaimed land (a polder) dotted with cow patties bigger than ...
Amsterdam, Netherlands
This is a top pick! Ahhh, Amsterdam at last. When in Amsterdam, first thing you see is millions of bicycles. You see them everywhere and everybody has one. Students, adults, kids, grandparents, even the tourists has the most popular vehicle in Holland. You also notice other ...
End of an Era
This is a top pick! After more than 8 years living in Amsterdam, our European adventure is coming to an end. Melanie has resigned from TCS effective August 31 and on Sept 1 we will move back to the U.S. What comes next is a bit of a mystery, even to us. We ...
chateaus and waffles
This is a top pick! ... old...like 30. Ya, now you know why I lie about my age to some of the people I meet. Brugge Coming up is The Netherlands, Luxembourg and some more of Germany. I fly out of Amsterdam Nov 4 for Cairo. I'm still working on my round-the-world ...
Visiting Mike in Groningen
This is a top pick! ... games to riding bikes to the farmer's market, I'll miss my time here. Coming to Groningen helped me understand more about Netherlands than I could ever learn in Amsterdam. Satisfied with the time spent, I picked my next destination, Hamburg, ...
