Where are you going next?

[Dr. Ivor Yeti]

Tomorrow is Benelux (without the "Lux") or Our Hanseatic League Tour. Be back in 10 days or so. Stay outta trouble, y'all.

What's the link to your travel website so we can see pictures and blogs?

[Dr. Ivor Yeti]

Whatta laugh! Like I'm gonna spend any time on the interweb while I'm...

Crap.

Well, for a constant feed, check out The Grrl's Facebook page or phone my business partner.

OK, Flying home tomorrow. Good time had by all. Amsterdam was one of my favorite cities before this trip and it is still one of my faves. Great people, laid back lifestyle, good food, and one of the prettiest cities on the planet, period. And every day can start and end with "a smoke and a pancake!"* Ah, Paradise!

Brussels suffered from following a tough act. A pleasant Euro-city and we were staying right at the edge of the old city center where the pavement ends and the cobblestones begin, just a couple blocks away from The Grand Market square. We took daytrips to Bruges and Ghent, both lovely cities, though Ghent was much less overrun by...well, by people like me. Heisenberg was having a good, long laugh at all of us.

Revelations: Heineken and Stelle don't suck when they are fresh. They don't rock, but they don't suck, either. Kinda like Guiness mt065

Best eats/drinks: Some southern Indian curry, southern Indian chicken biriyani both from Dosa in Leidesplein, Amsterdam, Ox cheeks, veal liver, carpaccio from Roue D'or, Brussels (Magritte-themed murals inside) waffle from Elizabeth's near the Market Square, Brussels, frijtz from the stand on the left side of the tower in Bruges (the ones from the right side...not so much) Hungarian Pancake, Shawerma Pancake, various pancake houses in Amsterdam. Best beer: some random "Beer of the Month" in a Carneceria in Ghent. No name, but it was blonde. Best coffee: Kaldi [Kaffe Spektakular] in Amsterdam. Special mention to Greel & Ko and their Coffee and Tea Museum.

I'll post some photos next week, or you can try to find my lovely SO's facebook page; every iPhone photo she took was followed immediately by frantic thumb-movements that allegedly caused things to happen in "cyber-space" on the "interweb" so that the photos were immediately available on this "Facebook" thing. It all smacks of magic to me.

It pisses me off that the entire brotherhood has been to Amsterdam before me.

I'm going to the lands of ASs. TexASS. VegASS. :butthead:

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

It's because you struggle. I've been twice to land of DAMN. Have some salt

[thatguy]

I've never been...I say we go on a field "trip"

We took daytrips to Bruges...

You went to fuckin' Bruges?

Was it like a fairytale? Did you see any racist midgets?

[Dr. Ivor Yeti]

Bruges is a fucking shithole.

[Greg_phpbb3_import1]

See? Some references don't fall off a cliff and slip into the dark abyss.

Fuckin Bruge.

I need to go back there, too.

[Drunk Monk]

i'm in plano with a gaggle of drunk sanshou fighters in the hotel biz center. it's 1:30am tx time. we've been drinking heineken lites, 10 year old hennesey & jim beam and eating these peanuts flavored with fermented tofu...

now they're giving me crap about being on some borg site (star trek skin).

[Dr. Ivor Yeti]

Soon you'll be back in Paradise.

[Drunk Monk]

for now...

[The Queen]

and then I start the every other week or every 3rd week travel marathon. Next stop: Washington DC.

[Drunk Monk]

The Chinese fighters got their visas revoked at the last moment. The promoter offered to cover me anyway, but I'd have nothing to write about really. I'm taking the break, since it's the only weekend I've had off all summer.

I'm trippin' on turning down a free Vegas trip. I must be getting old.
