few thoughts on the trip now that i have had a day to rest and reflect...
-jet lag's a bitch
-patience is still a virtue
-trying new things is usually worth it
-take time to slow down (smell the roses if you will)
-cait and i are very similar people, its interesting to spend three straight weeks with someone, you learn a lot
-big cities all smell like crap no matter where you are
-i love where i live and the people that are in my life (not really a lesson but a greater appreciation)
-things we saw everywhere
ice cream/gelato stands
coffee shops
french fries
mcdonalds
pizzerias
irish pubs
-personal space does not exist in Europe
-everyone knows a little English (interesting to watch a japanese and italian person talk and engligh was the way they did it)
-some parts of europe really do close for a one or two months at a time for holiday
-washing clothes in your sink is not fun
-we only saw one mexican restaurant and that was in amsterdam and that was a steak/mexican place
-on the plane writing this and "closing time" came on the ipod…
very fitting
