 Webcam in Groningen by sim1 Wondering what to wear? Take a look at this webcam of the Martinetoren, and see what the weather is like! This is a photo of the webcam from the 8th of April early in the morning. As you can see, another wonderful spring day! :-) To see the current conditions and the actual webcam go to this site : http://www.rtvnoord.nl/webcam/webcam1.jpg But whatever you do, don't forget your camera! Groningen is a beautiful city and province and has a lot of photo opportunities! The webcam is from RTV Noord, the radio and television broadcasting company of the northern part of the Netherlands. Take a look at their website http://www.rtvnoord.nl/ to read more about them and also find the news on the northern part of Holland (in Dutch). I hope they don't mind that I borrowed their webcam. But I just love how this webcam shows the Martinitower :-) Leave a Comment

Bring light clothes in summer, but do bring a pair of trousers, a sweater and a raincoat too, because it suddenly can get cold or rain.
Not really neccesary.
Film for your camera is here. Development is possible too.
Farmers just outside of the city often have campingspaces. Bring your own tent or caravan. Leave a Comment

ALWAYS !!!!!!!!!! Never forget to bring you camera with you cause you never know what you will see on your way.
Bring some food and drinks, bring a roadmap, bring your sunglasses, bring a very good mood if you have to drive a long way, bring somebody with whom you can have a laugh, bring home a new friend, bring back pictures and a story to tell. If you succeed you day wasnt lost ! Carpe Diem ! Leave a Comment
