Hi!
RV? There is someone in the world who does not know what RV means?
I'm
amazed. RV is short for "Recreational Vehicle", anything from Bill's

trailer to a multi-million dollar converted over the road bus. That
includes
what Europeans' call caravans (we call them travel trailers), and the

Nature Photo Weekend sold out the past couple of years, anyone wanting to
come to it next year should sign up as early as possible. The Camera Clinic
(kind of misnamed), photojournalistic orientated, is next month (16, 17

I wasn't trying to say that Amsterdam is a bad place, or that we
shouldn't go there. I was just wondering why Doug chose Amsterdam over
all the other cities in the world, that's all.
But, from what you say, it's a wonderful place. I don't know anything
about it, except that it's in The Netherlan

Four main reasons:

2)
You have to set it up for the hight of the season for tulips in Kuekenhof!
