Why not meet up in Utrecht? It's just as (if not more) picturesque than Amsterdam. Or float around to somewhere nearby, I'd recommend Delft or Gouda, and Leiden's one of my favourite places in the whole EU.
Over there, they just call it cheese (well, kaas). Suppose that's the same for Bega, do you guys call it Bega cheese or just 'cheese'?
Sometimes I wish I were back over there too. I lived in Den Haag for a year and a bit, on nice weekends I'd ride my bike to Delft, or Gouda for a nice long slog...
