    Flowers and pot. And mushrooms.

    And yeah, water management, RES and windmills, and they're pretty advanced in the circular economy / smart cities departments. They have also perfected the milk and sandwich lunch but I am not partial to that.

    So when New Orleans was built the Dutch just giggled?

    New Orleans was actually built above sea level originally. All that growth later on though...

    What is this that you speak of?

    Exactly that. Glass of milk and sandwiches. Not only do they eat that for lunch themselves, they cater with it too. Ugh.

    So they brought buckets of dirt with them and built an island?

    I just know Aruba is awesome and the people were very friendly. Also, Gouda like I said. GOUDA.

    I lived there for a few months. Had every variety of aging cheese you can imagine.

    Must have been nice. Sharp cheeses are delicious. :)
