Executive Decision...

SEAN AND LEO


Well gang, the time has come for me to re-group and alter my plans. Because of unforseen events, namely what I will forever refer to as the "Tango Incident," I will not be returning to England to see Damian Marley as originally planned. However, I believe my new found plan will be much more enriching and frankly was meant to be. See, traveling is all about the entire experience, so if you have setbacks you have 2 choices. You can sit there and feel completely sorry for yourself, or you can treat it as a path that you may not have normally followed. (I did, admittedly, have moments of total self-pity, but it didn' last too long!)

Now, I will be spending the next 6 weeks in Germany, or thereabouts, and will end here in Berlin with the Love Parade. And as luck would have it, Damian is playing here in Berlin on July 6th. Thank goodness I have booked accomodation in this fabulous hostel called CITYSTAY right near the big TV tower, very central but quiet. So, I will be here for the world cup final, hopefully staying with Carmen and Chad's cousin Carla and her family. I will go from here to Prague, then to Austria, on to Munich, Strassbourg and then hopefully my dear friend Frau Simone Mueller will hook me up with some relative, otherwise I am thinking about going to Budapest by train and then on to Warsaw, Poland. Flights are cheap! Okay, so there it is but Liverpool Sean's friend Leo just showed up and we are going out clubbing tonight. (Well, I'm hobbling, they are clubbing but at least there will be some cool underground music! Whoo Hoo!

I've been convalescing all day, trying not let my energetic mind talk my bruised body into running around like a fool and so far so good. Sorry I can't post photos, can' figure out how to work this bloody euro computer. Oh well, I guess it's time for a beer! LATERS!
