    Nice pics...just makes me want to go there.

    I am dying to go back to Holland...and the flatness?...hey, you can ride a bicycle and tour the entire country...how cool is that? Maybe I'll go over to Iowa and practice up for the bike ride across Holland.

    Scotch Whisky and meeting another kilted gent - looks like you don't need to visit Scotland after all. Great pics, Robin.

    Looks like the kind of place I could walk in and crawl out of! Very dangerous.

    AA - Iowa's not that flat!! You might try Nebraska or Kansas instead where most of the hills are the bridges over the Interstate

    Robin, looks like I'll need to save up for a visit to that area too. Don't let P1M see the pics of that whisky bar, he might have to come over and try them all

    HAH! This bar is probably WEE in comparison to P1Ms personal whisky collection!

    But seriously, 400 bottles is an AWFIE LOT O DRAMS!!

    Very nice, you must have needed the Scotch to stave off the altitude sickness. O'Neille
    Cowards die many times before their deaths; the valiant never taste of death but once. Of all the wonders I yet have heard, it seems to me most strange that men should fear; seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come. --William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar
