Ok lets see if Cherry Tap will be a good boy unlike freaking Myspace. As for the Dutch, very interesting people and well being in the "outback" of the Netherlands, they dont see many Americans much less soe dude from Texas, or of that fact not many people from the British Commonwealth countries but I have to say their English is great and when I try to learn Dutch or I speak German or Spanish to them being I have met many who speak German and Spanish well, they want soo much to learn English and say "speak English, I need to practice. I like the Dutch, great hearts and they are not so complex like most of us in America. They are very beautiful and very diverse people. Speaking of, they have many other cultures here just like Great Britain, Canada and the USA. Think of it, the Dutch were around the world just like the other European powers. Dutch are good at being great to other guest and do their best to make me feel welcomed but yeah I do meet those who have never seen an American so I am bombarded with question and I answer them and make a disclaimer that I speak for myself and not many others in America or Texas. I do try my best to learn about the Dutch and their culture and much as they learn and ask me about America. I do hate the fact CNN and other American media are shown here because I dont want the Dutch to form and opinion before they meet me and sometimes they do and when they meet me, they are like going, wow to me. I loved going to Groningan and seeing the villages on they way there. For those who have not been here, its like riding through the back area of New England and Groningen is like Georgetown, near Washington, DC and YES there are alot of bike riders and small cars around here. Well take care and I hope to hear from you all soon. I will try, when I can to get to a computer but it does get hard to find time or get to a computer from time to time. Hugs and take care all.
