Olympic pictures

Holland has clearly won the Olympics. Tickets for the medals event were kindly donated by Heineken. We loudly sang our national anthem, or at least the first few words of it.

Photo was taken in the shop so we didn't have to buy these stupid hats. Olympic merchandise sucks, except for the cool Holland House fleece jackets that Heineken kindly provided.

Getting ready to stun the world with an enormous pair of trousers

"We are from Holland." We decided to do our Holland promotion in the Heineken Holland House to avoid looking too chauvinistic. However, later we managed to infiltrate Club France, the French haunt, to show off our fleeces live on French TV. We noticed that the French were drinking Budweiser instead of Heineken, which although not completely unexpected, was still disappointing.

"I am from Holland." We also had a flag to show that we are from a tiny country.

"Can't remember where I'm from." In a sea of orange! How embarassing.

Almost ready for the slopes. Note that for the occasion, Monty has completely forgotten to bring his eyes (although he is still wearing his glasses).

Very nearly ready for the slopes now

Ready for the slopes. I still don't understand how two people can go down the hill sharing three skis.

Still ready for the slopes

Seeing double after only 1 beer. We have now abandoned the slopes. Notice that although Snowbird is quite a reasonable place, they did not sell us any Heineken.

Being bored at the Holland House. Lois Lane was playing Abba covers almost every day! Oh the humanity of it all!

We were not alone in the Holland House. There were some idiots with medals and very tight suits. Someone gave them a huge lump of ice in the shape of a number 1 and a number 2. Part of the number 2 (if I remember well), is still surviving in my freezer.
