馬斯垂克是座位於荷蘭南部的古城，從中世紀開始一直是個軍事要地，離恩荷芬約一個小時的車程。這次一日遊主打聖彼得堡壘和洞窟，然後到馬斯垂克市中心走走。 Maastricht is an ancient city in the south of the Netherlands, about an hour driving from Eindhoven. The focus of our trip is to visit the Fort and the underground caves at Mount St. Pieter.
天下無不散之宴席，每一次的離別就為了下一次的相聚。這次到加拿大主要的目的是探望姑姑，很感謝姑姑一家的熱情招待。洛磯之旅算是粗略走過，我們還會在湖光映照山色的季節重遊一次。 Our vacation in Canada was quite short. Thanks for the hospitality of my aunt and family.

有朋自遠方來，不亦樂乎？奧地利的舊同事，趁著復活節假期，來荷蘭玩三天。我們就當了他們次日旅程的地導，帶他們到鬱金香花園，贊斯安斯風車村，北荷蘭省的內海和長堤走走。 To welcome my ex-collegue from Austria, we have organised an one day trip in Holland, to visit the Keukenhof and the Zaanse Schans, and also to visit the sea and dam, to get some ideas how the watermanagement works in Holland.
荷蘭有兩個遠近馳名的風車群：南荷蘭省的小孩提防和北荷蘭省的贊斯安斯。這次一日遊的路徑都安排在阿姆斯特丹的周邊，於是選擇了把贊斯安斯介紹給奧地利的朋友。 In the Netherlands, there are two famaus windmill areas : Kinderdijk in South Holland province and Zaanse Schans in North Holland provice. We have chosen to introduce the Zaanse Schans to our guests from Austria.
