Sorry--that has nothing to do with my clue.

Think about the things that Holland is famous for---windmills, clogs, cyclists, tulips, cheese. One of those is a clue to the answer !!

This can't be right, as it has nothing to do with the above, but maybe it does :? :? :?
:? Anyway, wasn't New York originally named New Amsterdam?
So I'm going to try "New York, New York". :?: :?:

No , sorry they are both wrong--"I have returned" is also part of the clue--

What happens when you have returned from somewhere ??

Plus , there is a distinctive feature about Holland, that is a big clue!

Yes, it is quite a tricky one--but when you know the answer it will make sense.

I will try and give some more help later....

Sorry Marian--you are nowhere near---although I see where the cheese came in !

I will help you a little more here--the clue was cyclists--and the reason that there are a lot of cyclists in Holland [and places like that] are because---------???????
