The Dutch mascot: Posey!
Why did I choose Posey as the Dutch mascot?
When people think of Holland, or the Netherlands, they think of:
TULIPS, mills, cows, grass, cheese and wooden shoes.
I could have chosen WindDrifter for her mill, but I chose Posey out of
sentiment.
Posey was one of my first ponies and I've never owned a WindDrifter till
shortly ago.
Tour around Holland.
I want to devide this in 2 sections:
How people from other countries think about Holland
Ways Holland looks what people from other countries don't know
How people from other countries think about
Holland.
Things I've named before. Ofcourse this is part of the way
Holland looks, but there's more.
Watch
the tulips, mills, cows, grass and cheese.
Ways Holland looks what people from other
countries don't know.
I like this. Holland isn't as traditional as you all might think.
Esp. where I live it's very new .
The centre of the big city called Rotterdam, was bombed in the 2nd
WorldWar.
It's rebuild and very NewYork like (for me anyway).
Watch
the skyline, subway, shops and harbor.
Ofcourse we have a big airport (4 total) in our capital, Amsterdam.
Amsterdam isn't as new as Rotterdam when you look at the buildings, that's because it wasn't forced to renew.
In the North we have the islands, Friesland with it's own language, Groningen with the sealshelter and Noord-Holland where you can
find the traditional features.
In the South-East we have Limburg which is famous for it's pies. : p
Watch
a map of Holland, the airport and the seals. Impress
your (pony)friends! Learn Dutch!
Posey will teach you a sentence in Dutch, in easy steps you'll
learn how to pronounce the different words and a little
background of the dutch grammar.
Don't worry, you won't be tested ; )
Yes,
teach me! |
