We would say that “hoe gaan dit met jou”. So similar yet different in many ways.

Lucylucia, it took me a while to make the switch from the extremely manicured gardens of England to the more natural look of the parks here in Holland. I love both now!

We had a lovely time in Delft, Christine. I’m so glad we went yesterday when the weather was good. Today is gross.

Anne, that is so true about the radio! And conversations around me as well. I find that unless people are speaking textbook Dutch or phrases I learned in class, it takes me a while to figure out what they’re talking about. I guess this is where TV comes in…

Kathy, everyone I know who knows German tells me they can read Dutch but can’t speak it. I can read a little bit of German, but the spelling is different. I can also understand a few words now too, but I don’t think I could speak it. Maybe with a little practice?

Carla, the leaves are almost done falling here. Mother nature has been entertaining us here for months!
