Then on Wednesday we took a trip to the Dorestad museum at Wijk bij Duurstede near Utrecht.  We were going to look at an exhibition about the Dutch slave trade (automatic translation) in Suriname and the Netherlands Antilles created by Rita Maasdamme   In fact Rita drove us over there from Amsterdam herself.  Take a look at this video to see what we discovered on our travels.

P.S. There is no such thing as a mini DVD tape.  I meant mini DV tape!

Many thanks to Tom and Lauren for letting us include the conversation we had about the internet and viral marketing on the video, and to Dawn for operating the Handycam for one sequence..
