NLD Day 93 The Dutch and good weather

Ask the foreigners living in the Netherlands what they think about the country, and sooner than you expected you will start hearing all the things that bug them. The traffic jams, the terrible approach to health care, the high taxation, the lack of good service and so on.

But one thing that the Dutch do better than anyone else in the world, is how they enjoy good weather. If the weather forecast is good, it is not uncommon that they take a day off or leave work earlier, to chill with their friends in parks, lawns, balconies, roof terraces etc. Today is one of those days in Amsterdam and the video below shows how crowded Vondelpark is! If there is anything I would like to learn from the Dutch, it’s this appreciation of good weather!
