A perfect way to enjoy the winter in the Netherlands - on an ice-cold terrace sipping a toasty cup of hot Chocomel (a wonderful syrupy hot chocolate drink). A Dutch friend of mine had tagged this photo on her Facebook page, and I couldn't help but marvel at how the Dutch are masters at enjoying life. It's freezing cold? No biggie, we'll just build an ice-patio and serve our customers outside! All seasons, if it's sunny, the Dutch are out and enjoying the weather. In a land plagued with lots of rain, I guess taking advantage of the dry days is a necessity.

Hi!! My name is Artur, 25 old and I´m from Brazil. I´m glad to find this blog ´cause I love travel, too..As you know Portuguese is the first and only language of Brazil, so it´s very difficult to a lot of people learn english here, that´s why more brazilians go abroad to learn english. Have you ever been in brazil?! I hope so. Keep write!! Bye!! art_souza@hotmail.com (msn), artur de souza Silveira(facebook)
I'm visiting Amsterdam in a few weeks and whilst I don't think I will be able to enjoy coffee on a frozen canal, I can't wait to experience their utside culture. I plan to be in my serviced apartment in Amsterdam as little as possible and see as much as possible :)
Okay, that just looks amazing!!!!!
