The Dutch, in some respects, have a very practical perspective on decision-making in the workplace. If a manager wants to make a decision, he knows he needs buy-in from his employees if he wants to see his decisions followed through on. Unfortunately this also means there are lots of meetings so that employees can be part of the decision-making process, and it can take a long time for anything to get accomplished.

South Africa - November 2011
- In November 2011 we traveled to South Africa and brought Charles's parents along for the ride. We spent a week in and around Cape Town, a few days near Hartbeespoort and the Cradle of Humankind, a couple days at Pilanesberg National Park, and two days with my friend Stephanie and her family in Pretoria. It was a FANTASTIC trip! There are (currently) 78 photos in this album and don't include some of the great places we visited or people we saw. I may add more as we finish weeding through the approximately FOUR THOUSAND photos we took. Seriously. It was a great trip.
