Too much to post
So I'm obviously not doing a good job of keeping up to date with my travels on the blog. Not sure if anyone reads it anyway...but here are some highlights. Post a comment if you do.
Norway: There are tons of trampolines in Norway. I mean, I saw them everywhere. I think that's how they deal wth the depressing long winters. Also, tons of people wear UCLA clothing in Norway and Sweden. Not sure why.
Sweden: Went to a big DJ competition. Lots of fun. Celebrated mid-summer (huge celebration in Scandinavia) in Halmstad with some friends I met in Costa Rica. Lots of drinking.
Copenhagen: Took a canal tour, very nice, and rode the rides at Tivoli, a really old amusement park.
Hamburg: The weather was windy and rainy but met some cool people in my hostel and we went to some very interesting art and photo galleries. I also met this girl who is a modern dancer. She was my first real model (I'm trying to find a good place to upload photos) and that night I went to her dance performance. They had 9 huge shipping boxes stacked on top of each other Hollywood Squares style, with a different dancer in each one. The show was great though I didn't reall understand the German.
Nijmegen: (Holland) Met up with the Dutch Dental students who I met in Norway and went to their dental school party. Lots of fun followed by drunk bike riding home.
Amsterdam: Really beautiful city. Sensory Overload. Red light district is surreal. When I walked into my hostel room at 5pm some people were taking a nap. One guy asked me what time it was, so I told him. Just then someone else asked, "What day is it?" - I think that neatly summarizes Amsterdam. After 3 nights I was definitely ready to move on to Berlin. Seems really nice but it's cold and rainy. Guess I'll be hitting the museums today.
Until next time...

Yes Jordan, there are definitely people reading your blog. Were any of the modern dancers dressed up like Shadoe Stevens or Jim J. Bullock? That would have been AWESOME.
Ha, too funny. I was actually going to amend that post and say she was occupying the Jim J. Bullock spot, but you beat me to it. There was a whoopi goldberg look-a-like though.
