Anyways, to catch up from the last episode; my stay in Dusseldorf Germany has ended after three very short days. It was a great peace of mind finally being around someone who speaks the native language. As someone had described their experience of Germany, I had a similar experience, drinking a lot of German beers and eating a lot of sausages. I think one of my favorite new things is taking tequila shots with cinnamon and orange wedges. I could have done without the constant annoyance of the bees who were collecting the strawberry sauce of my spaghetti ice cream sundae for their honey. On Sunday afternoon I said goodbye to Birte and Hanna and hopped on a three hour flight to Athens to say hello to April and Stephanie.
Dusseldorf, Germany
After a short night stay in Athens, a shot and a half of a Crete liquor called Raki and a quick morning run through of the Acropolis this morning, I am currently hunkered down for a week in the sandy beaches of Chios; just a short hop, skip and skiddadle away from Turkey. I'm mentally worn down from all the Parisian museums, skyscrapers, endless sole wearing and soul bearing walks, foreign complications that all I can think about is just laying quietly in the peaceful sea breeze of the deep blue Aegean Sea...
gasp! I take offense to that alternate title, considering I'm probably the only one reading this that it still applies to.
ReplyDeleteHaha, I wrote that knowing you would comment seeing as you're my only loyal Le Blog commenter. I also envisioned you going down to the morning meeting after reading that...
ReplyDeleteI DID!! I was sipping my coffee and my mouth dropped as I saw that you were speaking to me.
ReplyDeleteI love your blog! Makes me feel like I'm on vacation... not letting the summer pass with an ancient wheel looming behind me.
