Martinair Holland

Advantages: Lots of kids activities
Disadvantages: busy at half term when theres no parking spaces.

...I used to work in London and enjoyed a trip or two to Holland park in Kensington.The kids loved it with the great big sand pit, swings, slides and various other play stuff,they used to take their buckets and spades and dig up all the sand....great fun.Lots of benches to sit at and watch and a nice little cafe to have a drink and whatever else you might fancy. Holland park was also great for walking and there were a few animals to look at on the way,I can remember ducks,swans,peacocks and squirrels. It was quite a busy place with kids, dog walkers,footballers,tennis players,etc.It was even busier at half term when all the children were off school and there was no where to park so I wouldnt recommend this time of year.

As you walk down ,the first ride you see is Superman The Ride and if you'd carry on forward you would see a massive ferris Wheel in front of you and loads of routes... Read review

Advantages: best chips in the world, great mussles
Disadvantages: no national cuisine whatsoever

...The Netherlands are not really famous for good food (rightly so), but I have lived and dined there for several years, and survived. Lacking a typical Dutch cuisine, Holland is full of international restaurants. But it does have some things going for it: Dutch chips are legendary, and in some parts of the country you can even find gourmet restaurants. Here comes my culinary guide to Holland. ---------------------------- AMSTEL, HEINEKEN & CO. ---------------------------- Let's start with the most essential: Alcohol (the other Dutch essential follows at the end of this article). Holland has come up with some very famous and not so famous beers and is home to a spirit which most British think was their invention. BEER: Heineken and Amstel are often perceived as competitors, but Amstel is actually a brand of Heineken Corp... Read review
