Who are you foolin. I can't believe you could have this kind of nuisance bugging you. Hello iPhone and apps!
And if worse comes to worst you'll end up down here. HE!

Stop it already. I am homesick enough as it is.

The trains are awesome - 25 minutes from Amsterdam to den Haag!

Because heaven help you if you need to stop and ASK where some of those places are.
Though thanks to my Dutch neighbours, I am fluent in useful phrases such as 'play nicely' 'no, don't do that' and 'do you want a drink?'

And what's more, don't worry. You'll be in a world class traffic jam at knooppunt Badhoevedorp, plenty of time to read the signs.

As you know my father was Dutch. Four years ago we were in Holland ourselves - and travelled by train!

This might be one of the funniest posts I have seen on the net in ages!
They must use yardsticks (meter sticks?) for their street signs!

We loved keukenhoff and have been twice. Once by public transit and once driving our own car. Got lost both times, but still worth it. I think by car was easier than pub. transit though. Eiher way, Dutch isnt a quick language to pick up, huh?

Also, I recommend visiting on a weekday if at all possible. We went the second time on the weekend and it was so crowded we left after about half and hour. Weekday was much much better.

I think my favorite part is the quick loop from Binnenweg onto Glipperweg onto Glipperdreef.

Sheesh, I thought I stumbled onto a sales page for IKEA here for a moment.
I want to be in the car when one of you reads the directions to the driver.
