Here's an interesting thing I found a while ago, http://www.travbuddy.com/world-travel-map (http://www.travbuddy.com/world-travel-map). It lets you show someone where you have traveled. So post yours here!

There is another service like this that I used years ago to create a "places visited map". Here is mine (http://www.world66.com/myworld66/visitedStates/statemap?visited=ALAZARCACOCTDCDEFLGAIDILINIAKSKYLAMEMDMAMIMNMSMOMTNENVNHNJNMNYNCNDOHOKORPARISCSDTNTXUTVTVAWAWVWIWY).

The one I first posted... http://www.travbuddy.com/widget_map_display.php?id=4069678 (http://www.travbuddy.com/widget_map_display.php?id=4069678) isn't any different from a new one, so I made one of where I will travel by the end of 2010.

Where have you been in the Netherlands? :)
just in Amsterdam!
I've never been to Amsterdam. I mainly drive through the southern part of Holland to get to Eschweiler as the E40 near Luik has a nasty concrete surface that shakes the car to bits - this is where American cars with their soft long travel suspension would help :cool:
I've also stayed with friends who used to live in an apartment overlooking South Square Shopping Centre in Rotterdam. Unfortunately it was near a main road where police/ambulance or fire truck sirens were whaling all the time. Unlike most countries which have two tone sirens, the sirens there have three tones that play a sort of tune.
Other than this I've not been to much of Holland and nowhere north of Rotterdam.
I have been to Amsterdam, Haarlem, and The Hague. I flew in at Schiphol and stayed in Amsterdam, visiting the other two cities by train. I found that it requires a special effort to search for cannabis-free budget accommodation in Amsterdam since it is otherwise easy to wind up in hostels where everyone is doing pot. When I flew back (through Gatwick), I was high on secondhand cannabis smoke. I shower every day and it nevertheless took more than a week for me to stop smelling of burnt rope.
At Schiphol I observed that the security checkpoints are situated right at the boarding gate, as is also the case at certain other airports like Kansas City and Zürich Kloten, rather than near the checkout desks, as at the majority of airports. The Nigerian responsible for the recent failed bomb attack on Northwest Flight 253 boarded at Schiphol, and I wonder if the layout at the security checkpoints may have indirectly facilitated his smuggling a bomb on board. When security checkpoints are located so near the planes, the task load for the security screeners is different. They have to watch for people trying to bring water onto the flight, since this is a strategy for avoiding dehydration which passengers will attempt based on their experience at other airports with consolidated screening. Moreover, they are working under much greater time pressure--and are therefore more liable to make mistakes--since passengers will naturally seek to minimize the amount of time they have to spend in a small, confined area without access to bathrooms and water.
In general I believe airports should be prohibited from carrying out primary security screening adjacent to gates unless bathroom facilities and clean drinking water are available between the checkpoint and the aircraft.

I want to visit Ireland (both parts), the Benelux countries and eastern Europe at some point, as well as more of the US, and (one day) Australia and New Zealand.
