If you've
gotten over the notion of the country's largest airport being below rising sea
levels, the liberal politics in practice here may fail to startle you, though
they'll certainly try. Assuming you know all about Holland's herbal reputation,

legal, making Holland the most "gay-friendly" country in the world.
Windmills
and clogs are not as commonplace as the cliché leads you to believe, though
bicycles and tulips are, and renting a bike for a tour of the tulip fields is a
must in spring. Taking a canal tour is a relaxing, educational way to see
Amsterdam, and miles of windy beaches and cascading dunes give kids an
opportunity to let off some steam.
