Flickr

I’ve done it.

I’ve joined Flickr and started putting photos up–under the screen name elmada, of course.

Right now I’ve posted photos from Nuremberg and Prague, and as time goes by, I might backfill–keeping within my strict 20MB upload per month.

Photos posted to Flickr are those that I like, but don’t want to bother […]

Dokumentationszentrum

Friday I headed down to Nuremberg with Rui.

Nuremberg is one of those cities I’ve always associated with the end of World War II because of the trials held in the city.

This is the t-shirt that I almost wasn’t allowed to purchase at Abercrombie and Fitch. There’s no alcohol theme here, is there?

Life Sucks

When I logged onto the computer here in Prague, I fully intended to have a rant about a movie I saw last night. You probably know the movie, its the one that starts the heterosexual, couch jumping, proposing, plays the same character in every movie one–Yes, I went, while here in Prague to see War […]

Prague Bound

In a few minutes I leave for Prague. I’m traveling by car to Dresden where Rui and I hope to catch an earlier train to Prague. We cannot drive to Prague since we’re using a rental car and rental cars cannot be driven into the Czech Republic (or other former Eastern Bloc nations, plus Italy).
