Post-elevencity-fever

Yesterday was a disappointing day for the Dutch as the 'eleven-city committee' decided there was not enough ice to skate the 'Elfstedentocht'.  15 cm of ice is needed in most places for event to go ahead and as the temperatures are expected to rise in the next few days we will probably have to wait a while for the next opportunity.

Today HEMA (a large chain of stores in Holland, favorite of many dutch people, including me) ran this ad.  Pretty brilliant if you ask me!



and here a picture of just how beautiful Holland can be
