You can see how crowded it was at the Keukenhof. I waited until most everyone cleared away before taking the picture. 

Aren't these georgeous? I LOVE the colors. 

These tulips are outside one of the restaurants in the Keukenhof. 

I went to Lisse, Holland, to visit the Keukenhof. It was a beautiful day, there were too many people, and there were an awful lot of tulips. Jim and walked about a thousand miles, and saw almost every tulip in the whole garden. If you ever get the opportunity to visit Holland, go, without hesitation. Here are a few shots of what to see. I especially like the staturary. The sculptures are scattered all over the park. The gardeners have created quite a display. And, you can hear the birds singing all day long. Have fun!

Quixtar Business Opportunity

I have a business opportunity for all of you using the Internet to shop.

You can shop through a portal at www.Quixtar.com. There are many products for you, your home, your family, and gift ideas within the framework of Quixtar. Also, there are links to other sites such as Shop.Com, Office Max, Wireless Marketplace, Barnes & Noble.com, Flora Gift.com, eToys, Gateway Computers, Circuit City, just to name a few. The choices on how to purchase are as varied on where to shop. There are catalogs to browse through or you can simply browse the web pages for products.

I purchase all my hair care, nail care, skin care, and make up through Quixtar. If you are used to buying big name products like Clinque, you should try the Artistry brand, like I do, from Quixtar. I have not returned any product I've ordered. I have been totally satisfied with all the products. And, I pay less than I would if I was at the store buying Clinique. Plus, there isn't a salesperson.

I love the laundry detergent and the fabric softener because they are both concentrated which makes them last longer. I only have to buy laundry detergent about every two months, now. When my boys were home, I could go through a box of SA8 in one month. And, they are environmentally safe which is a big bonus for me. I love our environment and try my best to take care of it.

There are car care products like car wash detergent which my husband was really surprised how much he loved using it. He was impressed because it was concentrated and one small amount in the bucket would clean both cars. There is a product the same as Armour All that he was equally impressed with.

The vitamins are the best I've tried. In 49 years, I've taken a lot of vitamins. I love the Double X, and take it twice a day. When I go without it I feel tired and sometimes restless. In the catalog there are comments about similar products; "If you like tylenol, try. . ." That is a huge help in choosing the products I would normally buy in the grocery store. I can buy them through Quixtar and not have to bring them home with my groceries.

Quixtar delivers everything right to my door; I don't have to carry them from the store, to the trunk of my car, then to the house.

I would encourage you to check out the Quixtar web site, look around and see what is available. Then, I would like for you to see www.IBOAlliance.com. If you find anything you like, please let me know. My IBO number is 3678110.

Email me at nienaking@gmail.com with any questions or comments.

There are cars, houses, telephones, Internet services, bank services, snack foods, health foods, weight management programs, clothes, shoes, electronics, Everything. Check it out.

In this day and age of computers, I can't imagine anyone who would not want to shop on the Internet and have everything delivered right to you home.

Here is a picture of me with my two sons, James and David. This was taken before my husband and I moved to Germany. 

This is a picture from the Heidelberg Castle in Germany. I visited there in March 2005. It was an overcast day windy and chilly. But the views were wonderful.
