- SSheila· May 19th, 2025I love the Netherlands. My guide agent is Mlean. The driver is Hank. It’s excellent, kind, and knowledgeable. Hank, driver, is something else because I suffered a stroke, and getting down the bus is a chore, but I got it. It’s OK, but lower it for the bus, I told Hank to drop it, please. He says you can do it, he said exercise. Oh my gosh! I tried, but it’s hard. But I paid Hank for the tip. Oh well, it’s a little lower. Wow, it’s a shame. My trip is memorable for me. Nothing is slowing down, but I am writing a letter to the company.Show moreTrip date: May 2025
