Roken is no dodejoken
... the world smokes! This brings us to the title. A warning on his cigarette pack- one of many. In our horrible Dutch pronunciation we turned it into smokers are jokers. Not exactly right but still a good message. Needless to say our Dutch is impeccable. Fortunately the language barriers only increase from here on out. You should have heard me trying to book a hostel in Prague on the phone. What a joke! We'll ...
Edam, clogs, windmills and tulips
