Dutch humour

What a perfect time to be sent to Holland for work. I have been working in the city of Rotterdam which is home to the second largest port in the world. With the start of "Le Tour de France" tomorrow in Rotterdam and the World Cup fever, it has certainly been hopping in town. Below are a few pics of Rotterdam, including the introduction of the race teams on a special built stage. The bottom left photo is of Lance Armsrong who is competing in his final tour.

On a final quick note, the Dutch certainly have a good sense of humour... just after Holland's success against Brazil this afternoon, the ground control at the airport showed his true colours as he directed the plane into its hold with a set of inflatible orange hand gloves!
