So maybe no one even is checking this anymore...
I know everyone probably gave up...but im back...god i guess i got so drug into the mundane...you know...gypsys sweeping the center....watching the donkeys till the field from my window...just everday stuff....i felt like there really wasnt anything new to talk about.
but i did go on a trip across western europe which was absolutely heavenly...i knew i was outside the iron curtain when i asked dara and jamie if it was okay to flush the toilet paper in amsterdam! oh wow! it was such a treat to be in countries with some real infastructure! im sure dara's told everyone how the trip was...theres just so much that it'll will take forever for me to relay right now.
But basically I met dara and jamie at the amsterdam airport (after a slight snafu where i flew in a day early but it gave me the chance to get the know the city and get dara and jamie to the hotel quickly from the airport) we spent a few hazy days there smoking, eating, smoking, going to the heineken brewery, the anne frank house, dodging bikes, smoking and eating 4 euro flaffels some more. It really is a beautiful city though. After feeling the monetary crunch in amsterdam, we headed for hamburg and stayed at a crappy family hostel with tons of childern and crap...i did not like it at all..we walked around the rieperbahn and i ate another flaffel and we had a few beers at a cool bar...but since we were headed for berlin the next day jamie and dara convinced me we should not party our brains out there but save the euros for berlin.
we arrived in berlin and stayed at a cool hostel with 2 bars and lots of interesting people. we met up with my ex-peace corps buddy peter and he took us to east berlin which was populated mostly by anarchists and punks...who hate americans which we learned while taking the u-bahn and this punks felt the need to voice their opinions in english about how stupid amereicans are and how they could tell that we were americans from our accent. we thought it best to ignore them even though i totally couldve taken that bitch who was talking the trash!
i will continue more later, im almost of money on the internet! love always, shaina rose
