We had a great time in Berlin, but DAMN it was FREEZING!!! I don’t think I’ve been colder before. The very first interesting thing that happened was on the train going there. At the first stop after we crossed the border into Germany four police officers got on the train and talked to a few [...]

There are a couple British stores here that sell some American items. That is where I have to go if I want some chili. Well I was there yesterday and noticed they had Mt. Dew! I couldn’t believe I did it – but I spent 1.40 Euros on an 8oz can! It was the best [...]

Two different couples I know back in Arizona got married last weekend and then yesterday. I wanted to send Frank & Nichole and Jenny & Jeremiah best wishes for a happy life together! I’m sorry I was not able to make it. I was really bummed that I missed both your special days.

I haven’t joined the gym yet – honestly I think I am feeling a little lazy and am not sure if I am truly going to use it. I decided to get up this week and walk every morning since it is not supposed to rain. I went out today and walked down this street [...]
