Advice on Holland wanted.
Be prepared for rain at any time. Holland is a rather damp country.
Winds generally from the South/Southwest and are pretty constant. Sometimes strong sometimes weak but always a factor. Holland is generally pretty flat and sandy. Except down near Maastrict (sp?) in the south where it is downright hilly. I cycle toured Holland and found it to be one of the most delightful tours I have ever undertaken. Guy College Park P.S. Learn a few basic phrases in Dutch. In the cities mast people are bi lingual in Dutch and English but in some of the outlying areas English is less common. Good luck and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. |
