she's crafty

today is my last real day in berlin. i am packing and cleaning and just realized that my suitcases are a LOT smaller than i remember. not good. maybe i'll have to run to the post office today and send some stuff home. i really dont want to have to do that, we'll see.

anyway, many have asked what i am doing in the future. tomorrow i leave for münchen (munich) germany and am staying at a hotel in downtown münchen so that i can see the town. i joked about trying to get them to open up a tent from oktoberfest, and i think i really will try to. or at least i plan on drinking a lot of beer. in any case, i will be there until monday at which time i going (first class) to paris via train. i have one transfer in stuttgart and i don't think the time in stuttgart is much, so i hope i dont miss my train. anyway, i will be staying with my dear friends lisa and dimitri (or as we call him, "meat") in paris. i wanted to get there in time to watch the election results with them.

i was going to do some traveling while i am there, using paris as a base, and i still may do that, but i also want to save some money. i was thinking of going to reims for a day or two (where i studied, in champagne country) to take pictures and reminisce. we'll see. lisa and dims will be gone the first weekend i am there, so i may or may not leave. the following weekend i am going to barcelona with lisa and elaine. that will be a nice weekend trip (fri - mon). i get back to paris on monday night and then am leaving for london on the 20th of nov (i think thats a thur). i'm staying with elaine until thanksgiving day (nov 27) when i fly home to fargo. while in london elaine thinks i should go to oxford, so i might do a day trip out there. we'll see. pretty much have no real plans for the next month... let me know if you have any suggestions.
