Am I the only one that gets the "You are not authorized to view this page" message when I try and view the diagrams? I get this message whenever the lone dutchman on the site posts a link also.

Most suggestions will get your post deleted.
It's a very interesting place.
There's actually a "coffeeshop" called The Doors that's a tribute to the band. It's a cool place if you really like the The Doors. A popular one (w/tourists anyway) is The Bulldog. There are/were several of them when I was there.
Dutch beers that suck here like Grolsch are far better there...they degrade terribly with the travel I guess.
You'll eat more Indonesian food there than Dutch food.
What looks like a hot dog stand on the street is actually a pickled herring sandwich vendor.
Dutch girls are hot and friendly. Don't go there with a girlfriend like I did.
Ton of museums and interesting architecture.
I can't believe it's been 11 years since I've been there. Of what I can remember, I remember it like it was yesterday.

Because off a lack of snow we build some indoor skiing facilities.

The girls (at that moment 14 years old) I’ll train dare to do it last summer. It’s pretty tricky but ones you dare it’s a lot of fun. Abs must be real strong and don’t put your head backwards to early.

Probably the machine is from Germany. I’ll try to find out where the machine is manufactured. In Leverkussen, the home base of almost all the German jumpers, there is also one.
