Visitors from Holland

Years ago, Rai, while traveling through Europe, we were welcomed with incredible hospitality in the home of two friends in The Netherlands. We were welcomed like family despite the fact that we were successfully playing the roles of dirty, homeless vagabonds. The week we spent there gave us a much needed opportunity to rest, eat, and sleep. Camping illegally in the Old World takes a lot out of a person.
This week, our Dutch friends were here in San Francisco, staying with your Grandparents. We shared a couple wonderful walks, a couple dinners at home, and a dinner out last night. Bart and Betsy wanted to show us a typical Dutch feast so we had dinner at India Clay Oven, a (for us) upscale restaurant with well-dressed waiters and roses on every table. The curries, dhals, naans and chutneys we had were as Dutch as it gets. Next time you see these two beautiful souls, Rai, may be on your first European road trip -- exciting!
