Was Amsterdam wonderful?<br />Pavlova: Thank you for the encouragement -- and I'll try to make sure to get some London posts going for you.<br />Marsha: True enough -- dragons and adventures do naturally go together, don't they! <br />But no, there was no flash involved, simply a tiptoeing tourist discreetly pointing a small silver device and making the teeniest little clicking sound.
