Paris
I just wrote kind of a long post about the goings on in Paris… the my browser crashed. ugh. I’ll be back in New York on Sunday. I’m going to need 2 things on that day. Sleep and some quality time with my Xbox.
Vienna to London - 4 days 1 post
I wrote these in a notebook on the day they occurred, so those playing the homegame are just going to have to deal with it all sounding as if it just occurred, all of it. 4 days and 2 cities.
VIENNA:
We took a 3 hour Segway tour of the city of Vienna (or Wien, in German) today. I have been torn on my opinions of the Segway as a transportation device since it launched however many years ago. ...

Yesterday we hung out at Mozart’s house today we hung out in Freud’s house. We walked WAY to far to get there.
