So I bailed out of Holland a couple of days ago. Had a great time. Got to visit with M&S as well as YN and EL. And apologies for the lack of posts – I’m a bit behind on my reporting (that’s what I’m calling my blogging now – according to my lawyers it gets me out of several of the class action lawsuits I am currently battling – and while we’re on the topic could someone out there *please* organize all of these class action suits against me into a single, mega-action suit? It defeats the purpose of a class action if there are several of them. Thank you.)
So what did I do on this trip? Well, I messaged my uncle informing him that there’s a town in Holland where all the street names are chosen from the Dutch translation of Lord of the Rings (the subtitles I think) – he’s a huge fan. I also mentioned that I happened to be in the Low Countries and then he asked me to “take lots of pictures”.
Full disclosure: if I were even *planning* on visiting such a place (if it does indeed exist) I would have mentioned nothing, instead opting to surprise my uncle with a complete blog post about my getting lost while collecting one of the kids I was babysitting from De Hobbit peuterspeelzaalwerk and also how it sucks to be Theoden because no one wants to steal his sign.

I mean, Holland is a huge country. What are the chances that this mythical Tolkien village would be within walking distance of my friends’ place where I was staying for my entire visit to their country? Like zero.
