  <content>rice-boy is very creative indeed. reminds me of &lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantastic_Planet"&gt;fantastic planet&lt;/a&gt;. I mostly  read megatokyo, sluggy and applegeeks.  If you count manga then I also read naruto, bleach and one piece.

sorry Calv, I deactivated my facebook account again. I didn't take that many pics anyway. Mostly tried to enjoy the moment(s) and let Arf/Trang take the pics. I didn't buy much either. Just a couple of books, a few trinkets and some DVDs.

Our itinerary allowed us about 3 days at each city. Some random things I noted... Amsterdam isn't full of stoned pot heads as I expected. Mostly the tourists were the ones high. I never knew the Vatican had such a large collection of artworks, probably as big as the Louvre Museum. Venice has smelly canals. Ancient Rome is very impressive. Paris is beautiful at night and very liberal on sex. Barcelona's buildings reminds me of Melbourne, except for the ones Gaudi built. Klimt is Austrian. East Berlin still needs a lot of rebuilding. London's tube is hot and stuffy. Mushy peas taste really good with fish and chips.</content>
