However in real life, once you become a permanent resident of a Schengen zone country, there is nobody to stop you or keep track of you within the zone.

The Netherlands in general is a very clean and orderly country we are finding.<br /><br />We are glad that you are enjoying our adventures and our pictures, we will certainly have a lot more coming your way. :-)Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-850518807278971092021-07-25T02:12:46.037-04:002021-07-25T02:12:46.037-04:00We don't want to rush through Slovenia but it ...We don't want to rush through Slovenia but it is part of the Schengen Zone so we don't have much time to get from Germany to Croatia which is not a Schengen Zone country. This is the issue that we are having to be very mindful of. We would love to spend lots of time there and we know we wouldn't regret it but we only have 26 days to get from Germany to Croatia before our time in the Schengen Zone is used up. No worries though, we will be spending a number of years here in Europe so we will definitely be back to Slovenia to see a lot more of the country then. Plus the weather will be starting to get quite a bit cooler in Slovenia in October.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-90232400414571973782021-07-25T02:06:04.010-04:002021-07-25T02:06:04.010-04:00No, we are hearing about it here too!

My world atlas has gotten lots of use, thanks to you-and others. I have been surprised at how clean and neat cities appear with most having pedestrian plazas. Perhaps you have highlighted them? Thank you from all of us for so much information, past and present, of the places you go. And the PICTURES!

However we are kept track of in the zone itself. We entered in Warsaw, Poland, and if we exit from Dusseldorf, Germany, the German border police use the same computer system as all the other Schengen zone countries and our time spent in the zone will be accounted for. They know exactly how many days you have been in. There are many stories out there of people being fined for overstaying.

This way, we don't have to move any of the lower seating cushions out of the way, and your partner doesn't have to crawl over you because they can still get out their own side and there is room to walk under the bed, crouched down.Kevin Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05795747155781311686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-38780530232542698482021-07-24T09:20:16.509-04:002021-07-24T09:20:16.509-04:00I thought about Ruth yesterday as I put our grocer...I thought about Ruth yesterday as I put our groceries away.
