Hi everybody–
I have but 5 minutes before my friend returns from teaching–I have just spent 4 hours on the internet as follows:
- Ordering a new computer (“Dude, I’m getting a Dell!”)
- Figuring out what kind of public service project my statistics class is going to do this summer.
Most of the time was spent on the later–there is a lot to chose from and I had to sort my email in order to figure out what offers I had.
Anyway, that leaves me with no time to write a very long email detailing everything that I’ve done since the Museum of London, so I will fill in details later:
- Saw musical: The Full Monty
- Saw musical: Fame (front row ticket!)
- Flew a brand new 737-700 from London to Amsterdam
- Toured Heineken in Amsterdam (a waste of €5)
- Got semi-lost in Germany on my way to Hamburg
- Watched World Cup game between Germany and Saudi Arabia (Germany won 8-0)
- Got drunk
- Toured Hamburg Harbor — in German, so I didn’t understand 95% of it
- Ate Portuguese and Turkish food
- Got from my host’s apartment in Hamburg all the way to Berlin by myself!
- Discovered that the z and the y are inverted on German kezboards
- Told somebody speaking Dutch to me that I did not speak Dutch, and he went American on me, proceeding to speak LOUDER in Dutch.
- Got another Dutch passport stamp, but no German stamp
- Pretended not to know English in Amsterdam in order to avoid talking to some panhandler/tourist
- Went to a nightclub with two professors (it was Student night, and they skewed the distribution). The professors danced… it was a Cuban themed restaurant/bar/nightclub. The next morning everybody showed up late to breakfast.
I have said a lot here, and was going to be more verbose about it (there are stories to tell), but she should have been here by now… I don’t know where she is.
I will write more to you at a later time!
Berlin and its former wall await me–the history here is Amazing.
Cheers for now!
Adam
