Hallo Cosmo,
Groeten van Long Island and congratulations with the pretty Boxster.
That second picture seems to be on the A15? Betuwelijn op de achtergrond?
We have a house in Tiel where we usually spend August every year, so it looks familiar.
Family telling me that it's not really top down weather in The Netherlands anymore.
I've put all seasons on Boxxie and I'm still driving around until they start putting salt on the roads.
Hurray for global warming!

@Nieuwenhzn

That's right! The picture is taken on a parking along the A15.
Very sharp seeing!;) I've also lived in Tiel. How did you get there from Long Island?

With this weather my Boxx stays in the garage with all the salt!

The semi-circular overhead line supports are a clear give away, the Betuwelijn seems to be the only railroad in the world that has them.
I actually never spent more than a month at a time in Tiel. We got the house built in 1994, my wife lived in it for 2 years while I worked in Geneva. In 1996 I got headhunted and we both moved to the US, first to Boston and now for the last 12 years on Long Island. Not too bad, although the weather right now reminds me of Christmas in The Netherlands, i.e. rain! Mmm, just checked the weather forecast for Tiel, remarkably the same as for Long Island.
It should be better weather around Christmas, maybe I'll take Boxxie top down for a Christmas runabout. Last year there was too much salt on the roads already.
Merry Christmas!
