Rule #1
Never, and I mean never stand in the middle of a Dutch bike path.
Rule #2
If accidentally stepping in said bike path, never gaze off into the distance and forget where you are standing.
Rule #3
If accidentally gazing off, forgetting the fact that you are in said Dutch bike path, never wave at the people and say loudly "Sorry!" It's better to pretend you are deaf and blind.
They are out to kill and will stop for no one...
And if your new Dutch friend offers you some candy and it looks like stick off of a tree. Do not, under any circumstances accept. It really is a stick. I was not given instructions on how to eat the candy, so I spent an hour trying to suck the "wooden juices?" from the center. Then I came to find out that you are supposed to CHEW the wood, so that when it's pulled from your mouth it looks like something belonging to Fido. Yeah....

Mmmmmm...Wooden juices. I'm glad you're having some interesting food experiences. I was watching Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern the other day and he was eating fermented whale oil and rotten fish heads. I don't think you're quite to that level yet, but keep being adventurous!!! Love ya - Th
