I haven't visited the area, but am I correct in thinking it's quite popular with German holiday makers. I spent a lot of time working in Koln and seem to recall friends talking about that area.

yes, germans like our beaches very much, since they are sandy and theirs are rocky.
and they like to drink lots of dutch beer.

and sharlene, it is still very hot and humid, thunderstorm today, but no relief!
i give ian only half his dosage of vetoryl, since he has lost weight because of this lousy weather, and is not feeling 100% in this heat.
the water temp. are very high now too, so not too much relief there too anymore.
we had a winter with no frost, so the water temp. were already high.
and it is only the beginning of august................
literally getting sick of it!
hope your weather is better.

Sorry to hear the wave continues. That is hard for pups and humans.
We have had such a cool summer but we have had a ton of rain also.

I don't think I had any Dutch beer but we did try Hodge Podge for dinner one night in Amsterdam. Bailey's mom, Susan just saw all the tulips in a beautiful park and sent the most wonderful video. It was just so lovely seeing all the tulips and the patterns made with the colors.

Try to stay cool and dry if you can!!!!

I was always a disappointment to them because I just don't like beer :eek: I was even more of a disappointment to the Belgians when I spent 4 months in Antwerp :D

Is your weather always been so humid? It definitely seemed to get hotter in my last years in the UK, and here is unbearable - from the end of May to mid-September I basically hibernate because of the heat and humidity (and Henry joins me so I can fully understand how poor Ian feels).

i don't like beer too! [male] dutch, british, german and belgian working class people drink a lot of it. it gives them pot bellies, ha, ha!
the weather is getting hotter according to the people who are studying the climate change.
we had a very "hot" winter [no frost] , so the water temp. are high and the wind is "'hot"' too.
normally with a sea climate the wind from the sea is cool, but this year the wind is most of the time from the land side where the temp. are higher.
and especially the nights are hot and sticky. not cooling down much.
@addy and@ mc davis; you both have been travelling a lot for work and holidays.
if you want to sea tulips, you have to come during early spring time.

i've never been to the usa or canada, but i have visited a lot of european countries by car.
i hope the weather will be quiet and cool for all our [cush] doggies.

and i won "'the cushing's lottery"' for the third time.
ian's sister enya is on vetoryl too since 5 days. 15 mg. doing well.
ian is still on 15 mg too since he lost some weight because of the heat.
it is cooler now this week, so we are happy.
hope the heat does not come back.
it didn't do any good to us.
hope the dogs will recover soon from this.
i am still a bit worried.

Oh my goodness!! 3 now! Glad Enya is doing well.

Did you get her tested?
What is causing you to worry still?
Do you think this is a litter issue since all 3 have had cushings?

Glad the weather is cooler, I know you were really sweltering!

hugs
Sharlene and molly muffin

Well you called it right. Are you ok? I'm glad the heat let up for you.

Are you worried Ian lost some weight and had trouble with the heat?
