Thanksgiving Weekend

Dharyll and I traveled around bits of Europe for five days (four nights). We flew into Eindhoven on Wednesday, took a bus straight to Amsterdam and stayed there for two nights. Then we took a train to Luxembourg, stayed there one night and then hopped on a train to Brussels, then Koln (Cologne) and then wound up back in Eindhoven for the last night and flew back to Pisa the next day. We're finally home (or surrogate home for now). As much as I like seeing new things, I really like coming home at the end of the day.
Amsterdam.
This is what greeted me in the first hotel room, pretty much the most exciting thing ever.
Nice to meet you too Mr. TV!






















Might as well travel in style when you're rocking around Amsterdam. This van pretty much sums it up...
Next stop? Luxembourg!
The train station! All ghosty and neat...
I smell Christmas... and elks.
Horse statue #1.
Place de Claire Fontane.
Moss.... on the ground.
A castle we saw when we were crossing the bridge to the train station. AND it wasn't as long a walk as Dharyll thought, so I win.
Scoutland? More like naughty Scoutland!
The Grand Palace.
The Hammelsmarsch fountain.
Baaa!
Doodle-do-do-doooo...
More moss! But this time it's on a rock!

Goodbye, Luxembroug!
Hello Brussels!
Buildings... in Brussels.


Gra-FI-tay!
Mmmmm... vandalism. Too bad they don't say something like "Fuck Cops" because then I could rile up Ben. Or maybe they do... they ARE in another language.
Fantastic! Aaannndddd random.
TREE!



Fountain!








A cool fence made out of tree branches!

A wicked big pile of leaves! I thought of you Star, and how much fun it would be to jump in them! Too bad I'd feel silly doing it on my own...

A crow... eating ANOTHER crow! Nice.



Pope DJ! Fo' serious!
A baby in a womb. Nice!

I just liked this poster.
Buildings.
Koln/Cologne!
Grafiti building.
Starbucks! The first one in three months. Mmmmm McDonaldisation.

Cool windows.


Drinkin' a coffee Dharyll style.
Clouds from the airplane on the way home. Pretty.
