Empathy I must say you hit the nail right on the head. I've been travelling for a couple of months and the last fortnight in Croatia and I understand exactly what you are saying especially as I'm someone whose bladder likes to hover over a toilet very regularly!I love the US for this as they seems to understand exactly what a girl needs in the toilet and don't charge for it!
toilet paper What fun is a trip without unque adventures. When I told you to bring a roll of Extra Soft Scotts Tissue you said you didn't have room. I bet you wished you made room. Luckily you didn't put your backpack down in the muck.
LOL OK, so I love this post but I must say that the Google advertisement on the right is a little much. LMAO, it's all for toilet paper or toilet paper holders. WTF?
Women learn when they are young the importance of TP. We carry purses, with a supply of tissues for any emergency. Even in the states there is no guarantee there will be TP in a public restroom.
Kudos Hey Ed. Sarajevo is one of the places on your journey that I've never visited but reading what you have written next time I'm heading South I will be certain to stop there. I have a Bosnian friend (alot of refugees headed to Austria), an incredibly humane, friendly and helpful person and she describes the situation almost exactly as you have. Keep those entries coming - learning from your travels is almost as good as being there :)
Photos I can get pictures up, but it is usually a long process and most of the time I am paying for the internet so I tend not too. I will gt some up when I can though.
Having fun Ed, It sounds like you are having a great time !! Is there a way you can post any pictures? You writing is very interesting.... You should write a book about your trip .
Good to see you enjoyed it :)
I wish i was a tourist in paris, i love so much this city (FYI i live in Paris) but seeing it for the first time is a great experience.
Surprising That's a lot of states! At this rate you will definitely be able to hit all 50 by the time you are 50. I have to say that I am rather surprised you've never been to Vermont, though. (Beautiful state -- go either in summer or autumn)
Colorado is an amazing place, too. If you ever go to Colorado Springs, go to the Garden of the Gods, not too far from there. The stone formations look like they belong on Mars; they are incredible.
Just Ask
Ed, No Idea that yoy could not find good pizza or subs in Maine. Just ask I have a vast knowlodge of such things. The belly should give that away, Haha..
Pizza starts with a good dough then toppings piled high and deep. Yummy.
What constitutes visiting a state? In my opinion, to have visited a state you must have spent at least 2 nights in the same city in the state. I have driven through the Carolina's and Georgia, but seeing these states from the highway is not experiencing these states. I would like to see all 50 states by the time I am 50!
