Hey, I recently published an article about “de Fred”, too. We probably were there on the same day? :0) I also took photos of that same cheese shop and of Thomas Green’s :o)

Thanks for your comment on my blog re the Seth Apter-inspired disintegration. What an interesting life you must lead! I just interviewed a once-local woman who now lives in Buenos Aires. ExPats are true adventurers living a global life. Cheers! – Jeanne in Oregon

Just had a great idea…we get someone else to ride us around in the back of one of those bikes and we’ll have brie, baguette and champagne – yum!

I love cheese! Apparently, I loved Amsterdam when I visited when I was four for precisely that reason. Lots of nice Dutch ladies kept offering me cheese samples in the shops.

Have you seen the United Nations International Court yet?

I love how you guys head out on your bikes now, it’s so healthy, built-in exercise and shopping control!

Thanks for all the wonderful comments you left over on my blog!! It’s kinda fun cross-sharing adventures. Do they grow pumpkins in Holland? I used to make my pumpkin pies from scratch every year and it was pretty easy (no, not easy enough that I still do it!) My daughter fell in love with a tea we had at Harrod’s in London but they won’t ship it over here. Funny how it’s always the little things you miss.

Julia, the cheese is very mild here. You have to be in the shop to really smell it and even then, it’s not very strong. I think touring any place with a wedge of brie and a baguette sounds divine! Can we have champagne too?
