Chateau d If:
I thought the "dancers came from <some Dutch town> " comment said it was someplace other than Zoutkamp. He was talking about how the costumes were of a style associated with that town. He did not like the idea that the other town might steal credit by the recognition of the costumes. :duno:

--- Quote --- They wore traditional clothes from Volendam and bycicled to the harbour where they talked to someone on a boat and after that they went on to dance traditionally or they had to do farmers golf a traditional Groninger sport. I'm saying this to make sure that people will know it was not Volendam that was portraited, but our beautiful small vilage groningen. Please make sure people will know this in America.

--- Quote --- There is a dancing group in Zoutkamp. This group dances Volksdansen (Dances for the people (bad translation)). They were told very little, but they knew they had to dance on July the 30th. On Tuesday they heard that there would be camera's on Thursday July the 30th.

--- Quote ---Nice movie, but I just can not, in Volendam costume Groningen territory! Then the Americans think that way throughout "The Dutch" is. Why is the folk dance group "Grunneger Daansers" from Zandeweer not there to ask? They wear beautiful costumes Groningen.

thats possible... if you watch the TV station video, you can see the bikers taking the red path around the big curve, They would have to make a hairpin turn after going to the kerk (green path), to get back to the curve. 6 of 1, half dozen of another. :lol: the results the same.
