    Bad weather

    Kwun,

    rain is typical in Luxembourg in all seasons, really. I think it's the Ardennes that produce lots of relief precipitation so I guess the "bad weather zone" extends into southern Belgium and France as well. But don't worry too much, if you're only here a day or two you've got a fair chance of escaping the torrents ;) .

    Hi Kwun,

    Good choice. About the rain in Holland, it is there always...
    You should also spend some time in Amsterdam, if you have never been there before. Eindhoven, Amsterdam and Schiphol have big trainstations, so trainconnections plenty. Schiphol-Amsterdam will take 15/20 minutes and Schiphol-Eindhoven will take about 90 minutes. You can also do a car-rental, we have good roads to the directions.
    Any suggestions for sight-seeing in Holland:

    - Visit to Volendam (fishers village, little harbour)
    - Some nice musea (if you like there is the *** museum in Amsterdam, near the trainstation)
    - Some nice parcs (Efteling, Artis(zoo), Six Flags, Keukenhof)

    I can be more specific if you tell me your interests!!

    Good luck, if you have any questions, let me know...

    Hi NL-Player!!

    Have you seen my website, where you can find dutch translations now??

    If you want to you can write something in dutch for my site??

    It must be something that is interesting for all badmintonfans like Sudirman Cup!!

    How about a presentation of the dutch national players??

    Kind Regards

    Jonas

    Italy would be a good choice. Rome is fascinating.

    Hi JR,

    I have seen your website, looks really nice to me...
    No problem to write you some dutch text, but I think descriptions about dutch players are already available. I will take a look for you and mail you if found some interesting (dutch) pages.

    Maybe it is also a good idea for you to do your Sudirman Cup cooling down as a demo in our sports hall?!? Would be a great learning experience for us :)
