    I feel a strong need to comment on this since I did live in Almere at one time. (Although I was so little that I don't remember)

    Where is Kasteel Almere?!?

    just kidding :p I love the feeling of Nederland you've captured with this. Being Dutch born, but having lived in America most of my life, this brings back good memories. It feels a lot like visiting Madurodam as a little kid. It has that cute feeling without being of too small a scale for RCT.

    :nod:

    That's cool. How old were you when you left?

    You mean this? Never got finished due to financial issues.

    Thanks! I'm happy to bring back memories of our glorious nation, and I hope to do so again in the future. I really want to do more Dutch stuff sometime, and of higher quality. For now that will most likely be a map showing different areas and sites in Amsterdam. I don't know if you relate to that though...

    I was only but 2 years old, hence why my Dutch is not so good, although not terrible. I have a nice accent though, I hear from my parents. My cousin always makes me say "bosvruchten yoghurtijs" before I can have any. :p My father came to America temporarily to study, but for some reason my parents decided to stay here. I'm still very much a Nederlander though, since my entire family lives there except for myself and my parents. My mother's family lives in/near Breda, and my father's near Groningen and Assen. So I've spent the most time in those areas.

    Haha yes yes, but I've always thought it was a most fascinating structure, so unfinished. Since it is somewhat of a unique thing, not only in Almere but anywhere, I expected to see it. Maybe it's just my fascination with unfinished/abandoned structures though :D/>

    I would love to see some more work themed to our nation! None of my family lives in Amsterdam, so I've only been a few times. I have studied the city though. We're biased, hehe, but Amsterdam is truly an amazing city, deserving of a map. I'd love to see your take on the city!

    Thanks for replying, Liam!
