Here's my recap of my trip so far.....
Things that don't suck:
-Air France: don't get me wrong, i'm all about freedom fries, but this plane ride was awesome. i got my own personal tv, with 8 or 9 movies to choose from, and they started every 15 minutes.
-Gelato: think cold stone creamery on steroids.
-Food, every sandwich I've had has put subway to shame. every pasta dish makes olive garden seem second rate to white castle. wait, it's always been second rate to those jalapeno cheeseburgers, never mind.
-Towns built on mountain sides, and by the sea. I swear the pictures I show all of you when I get home won't do it justice. You have to be here to see how beautiful this country is. at least so far what i've seen.
Things that do:
-Jetlag
-Europeans wearing bathing suits. I'm not talking the women, im talking european men in speedos. very fasionable speedos, but speedos nonetheless.
-Why deoderant isnt mandatory.
-Being confused ALL THE TIME. But then again, whats new with that really?
-Not being able to watch tiger games on tv. I heard seattle used a catcher to pitch against us. are we really that bad now?
-Watching cable tv at our hotel. Its great that i can watch reruns of friends and lord of the rings, but why arent they speaking english?
-It's hot. i know you've all heard me use the term "Africa hot". But really, its only a short boat ride away, so that term applies here too. Did I mention the deoderant thing?
-Train/bus strikes. why? at least they said they were only striking part of today. and they told everyone when they would be striking well in advance. they coulve really stuck it to us, so im somewhat grateful. at least it got us to stay in sorrento one more day.
-Pompeii. Actually, this was a pretty sweet place to visit, but man, that volcano must've really really sucked.
-that's all for today. I hope all is well back home. I do get to check my email sometimes, so please keep this blog g-rated, and send the other ones to edpascual@email.com
ciao!

haha, yeah, the tigers won 2-1 in 15 innings. the mariners had to use their 3rd string catcher as their pitcher cuz they ran out of pitchers in the bullpen. cc sabathia got traded to the brewers. they cemented the winter classic. jan. 1, blackhawks vs red wings in wrigley. look out for all of those bike riders. third day of the tour de france today.
glad you guys are having fun...
Hey, ED I bought some X-18, hitting them pretty good...
You and Jenn, should go to Aruba with us next year
James
