Thursday , We got up a bit late after the awesome laser show. Drove to a train station ( Marta) not far from here. Caught that into the middle of Atlanta. We always seem to attract real winners. This time his name was Dexter, a black guy. Who told us what stop to get off , then yaked all the way into town , telling us about his life history. He is doing time in jail , 2 days a week for 6 months. His "Woman" has got 1 of his children , his "Girl" has got 3 of his kids [View Full Entry]

Today was the first day I didn’t spend any considerable time behind the wheel. I utilized Atlanta’s MARTA, the public transportation system, to head downtown. New York could take a few notes from the system here. The big one - how hard would it be to install timers on when the next train will arrive? That was a nice convenience here. Anyway, the Centennial Park area of downtown is the most touristy section. It’s where CNN, World of Coke and the Aquarium are all found, obviously along with the park named so because of the 1996 Olympics. My first stop was [View Full Entry]

Today was largely spent on the road. I left Charlotte this morning to head to Atlanta. On the way, I passed through Clemson so I had to stop and look around. Given that it’s summertime I expected the campus to be dead, although UNC and Duke got my hopes up. Well, dead doesn’t begin to describe it. Other than a few university buildings I wouldn’t have even known it was a college town. The real shocker came when trying to find a place for lunch. I had heard of such a thing but had never experienced it myself. Clemson is DRY [View Full Entry]

Its 14:00 on Friday afternoon and I'm in the middle of Alabama on the train from Atlanta down to New Orleans. I Arrived in Atlanta on Wednesday morning at 8am. Trying to get some sleep on the train was harder than I thought. The Amtrak seats where comfortable enough, but I still found it difficult to stay asleep for more than about half an hour. I took a bus and then the underground to the hostel which was quite a strange place. The building was a big old house that had been converted. Antique bits and pieces where hung up on [View Full Entry]

I'm officially done traveling for the next fourteen or so months. I barely readjusted to East Coast time before heading to California for the holidays. My body still doesn't know what time zone it's in, but it did pack on a few pounds of See's candies, chocolate-covered macadamia nuts and my brother's cooking. Good thing I'm starting school in a week. I still have Montenegro to write about, but I wanted to use this space to wish everybody a happy and healthy new year. I hope it's packed with new adventures that you can write to me about, because I will [View Full Entry]

Hey Gang~ I'm trying this site in hopes that it will make it easier for me to post, and for you all to read at your leisure. Thanks to SkyMiles I've been saving since before the millennium, I'm flying into Rome, Italy. Visiting cities in the Umbria I'll head north around the Adriatic into Slovenia. (One of the cons of traveling in the off season is that transport evaporates once the crowds, too, have vanished. But, I've found that my detours inevitably lead to serendipity.) Wending south through Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, newly independent Montenegro and Albania I'll circle Gre [View Full Entry]
