"Marinus" wrote in message ... We just got at least 30 cm of fresh snow, bought myself a pair of Atomic sx:9 but WHY DON'T WE HAVE ANY MOUNTAINS HERE IN THE NETHERLANDS? Sounds ideal for cross-country skiing, or snow-shoe walking! You bought the wrong type of skis ;-) -- |

WHY DON'T WE HAVE ANY MOUNTAINS HERE IN THE NETHERLANDS?
The Ski-Welt Wilder Kaiser may be some 900km away from you, but at the moment it is Dutch territory! There are more Dutchmen than locals around! You even get Dutch Euro coins as change! ;-) Turan |
