Hello,
Just joined the list and I want to say hello to everyone first and foremost!!
---
Leaving in two weeks for my fourth trip to The Netherlands in six years.
Since there are so many places that I have not been too yet; I'm actually thinking about skipping Amsterdam entirely this trip. For the most part I will be staying in Amersfoort.
I am meeting some Dutch friends of mine in Maastricht and Groningen during this trip...they have convinced me to spend more than just a day in those cities. Plus, I will be visiting with family in various cities (Haarlem, Tiel and maybe Dieren).
My time in Haarlem will be limited and spent entirely with family at a reception/party. After the reception I will be returning to Tiel to spend the day with family. From there return to Amersfoort...then going to Maastricht for two days, return to Amersfoort, go to Leeuwarden in order to catch the train to Zwaagwesteinde to visit my mother's birth village and then on into Groningen. From there returning to Amersfoort.
With all that ... you might see why I am thinking about skipping Amsterdam. especially with the Rijksmuseum still under re-construction.
So... there are two goals for this trip:
1) visit family/friends
2) visit as many RLD's/Prive I can physically and monetarily handle ;-)
If anyone on the list can give me some insight into some of the lesser known places I would appreciate it! To recap:
1) Amersfoort - I have previously visited the Privehuis here but have always wondered if there is more than the one by the railroad station and/or a small RLD
2) Leeuwarden - have begun to look at the info on this website
3) Zwaagwesteinde - I'm guessing not since it is so small
4) Groningen - most likely spending the night here
5) Tiel - I know nothing about this city. Visiting my cousin here.
6) Maastricht - have begun to look at the info on this website
7) Dieren - least likely city I will visit
Also, if I do make it to Amsterdam I have decided to follow the walking tour of the RLD's that is listed on this website. In the past when I've been in Amsterdam I generally just wander around until I find something fun to do...with a general idea of making it towards the Musuem district.
Looking forward to hearing what everyone has to offer!
Thanks,
eric

...and never looked back. Why does the first time always have to be nervous?? ;-)

“I have absolutely NO clue where in the RLD I was.”
Hi Eric,
What a coincidence! I went to Amsterdam for the first time without the RLD in mind. By 5 PM, I was looking at my tourist map in the Leidsplein area and asked a man where the next tourist destination was. So I arrived at the Wallen around 6 PM. My first girl was a gorgeous petite babe from Czech named Vivian. Afterwards, she was a bit nervous that we were too close to 7 PM and she had to hurry to clean up for the night shift girl. As much as I would like to see her the next day, I was not sure where I found her the first time..
Regards,
Fred
P.S. You need to see Judy, a stunner in Groningen.....

It's called "Nieuwstad" and it's in the citycenter, parallel and not far from the huge Vismarkt , coming from the railway station walking towards the citycenter (Vismarkt) with the old towers you automatically cross Nieuwstad.

Guys,
Started adding the ladies I visited to The Device. Will complete later today (just went to grab my notes from vacation and it's not in my bag) ... but the basics are:
Groningen: Judy, german, Nieuwstraat 31-III, very tall, excellent english
Leeuwaarden: "bulgarian", bulgarian, Moulin Rouge #13, petite, no english
Leeuwaarden: ??? (will fill in later), bulgarian, Moulin Rouge #3, petite, no english
Amersfoort: ??? (will fill in later), brazilian, Amersfoort Prive, petite/curvy, minimal english
Looking at The Device just now I didn't realize that there were windows on Hoekstraat and Muurstraat in Groningen. But that was okay, there were more than enough beauties on Nieuwstraat for my short stay in Groningen.
Thanks,
eric

Well done, Eric! Judy from Hanover is the best looker in the entire Groningen RLD. Before I left her kamer, she asked me if I would be back later that evening. Sweet!
Regards,
Fred
