Names (left to right):Leroy and Irene Jones of Aurora and daughters Kathy Santana of Parker and Carol Wasson of Las Vegas, NV
Where photo taken:Kinderdijk, Holland. These are all working windmills that require the people living in them to be 'millers' and maintain them. There is a list of people to live in them.
Best meal:Da Giovanni restaurant in Antwerp, the plate size pizza is wonderful. It is near the center of town so you can sit outside, watch the people and listen to the church bells.
Best deal:Shopping in Volendam, they have everything you might want to bring home. The area ia beautiful and should not be missed. Be sure to get food from the venders in the market and sit on a bench watching the boats on the water. If you are lucky, you might see the choir sing on the street.
Best time to go:Late March to mid-May. The Keukenhof Gargens with 7 million bulbs planted bloom at this time. It is only open two months of the year and should not be missed. We were there the last week in April and had unusual weather; no rain and tempatures in the mid 70s.
Best travel tip:Everyone in Holland speaks English and the signs are written in English so you should have no trouble getting around. We were on a river cruise that had local guides at every stop. They were a wealth of information.

Paper Trails Guidelines
- Take a Denver Post Travel section with you on your next trip and get someone to take a photo of you (no big groups, please) with the section. Use your imagination, but get serious about sharing your best information with our readers. The more creative the photo and the better the tips, the more likely it will be used in the published newspaper.
Register, log in & upload your photo on this page and remember to include: Who? (identify the people in the photo, from left to right); Where? (where the photo was taken); Best meal; Best deal; Best time to go; Best travel tip.
You are limited to one photo upload per trip. . We prefer HiRes (3 megapixel or larger resolution) JPEG images, and the travel editor will contact you if your image will be used in the published newspaper.
