Hi everybody,

We will be in Playa for the 9th time in june 2007!!
My wife and I love the place and keep comming back each year.
Our first visit was in 1999!!!

In 2007 we will stay at La Tortuga for more than 3 weeks!!
Previous visits we stayed at the Mayan Paradise(2x), The Caribbean Paradise(1x) and El Tukan(6x)

We are counting down allready and can't wait to get on the plane...

We will be visting this forum every day to keep up with everthing that goes on in our beloved town.

Hasta luego,

Ron and Laura.

Hallo Ron & Laura,
Welcome to this forum!
Altijd leuk om weer eens Nederlanders tegen te komen op dit forum.

Don't mind "de welkome vriend"....ha ha ha.. He found a good translation website!
Groeten,
Rob.

So...what's the matter? Isn't that the right thing to say?

Not really no. The words are Dutch, but it's not a good sentence. "De welkomst vriend" sounds a bit better in Dutch.

Sorry about that. I'm just doing the best I can. I don't speak Dutch, but I thought it was worth the effort anyway. Your English is excellent, but we Canadians don't study languages as much as we should, with the exception of the French that's forced on us in school.

It was a nice gesture anyway

....it's the thought that counts, right (p.s.it looked correct to me, but then, what would I know - can't speak a word of Dutch

)

Welcome!

We're planning our next (the third for me) trip to PDC in the summer and are actually already discussing what day trips to take and what to see.....I never used to do that, but waiting for the vacation in Playa does that to me

It is a nice gesture indeed!

And the words were Dutch, no comment on that by the way.

It was the sentence that was a bit strange...
