It's a real winter: Dutch people skating on natural ice :)
I went skating with my mom this morning. It's been years since it's been possible to do so on natural ice. There is a lot of open water in the Netherlands, and since it is usually not too deep - a week of consistent freezing temperatures (in day AND nighttime) will give them an ice layer that people can walk on & skate on as well. So I thought I'd share a youtube video about this on my lens about the Netherlands. It's a rare sight - cause the climate is heating up.by spirituality

The authors have clearly looked much farther than wooden shoes and tulips... Even the way the Dutch stir sugar in their coffee has not escaped their notice and not until you read this book from cover to cover do you understand how much Dutch behavior, that we consider as completely normal ourselves, borders on insanity for a non-Netherlander.
Everything in it is true, and only the humor with which it is written makes it at all palatable for for Dutch people themselves.
