Just got chance to upload some photos from the end of Tampa, aswell as from Atlanta and Asheville. I also realised I never explained why Asheville was so good. For a start it's the easiest place to be vegetarian I've ever visited.. There are a ton of vegetarian/vegan cafes which all sell organic food, and there is a comforting lack of any chains I recognised (McDonalds, Subway etc). Everything seems independant and local (there is in fact a big campaign there at the moment for Buying Local). They are very into sustainability and recycling and all that jazz, and everyone just seems to be environmentally and politically sound.

Now, onto the photos. The fishing ones are from the Tampa where I caught a tiny bass. The huge buildings and all the aquarium photos are all Atlanta, Georgia. The waterfall and forest pictures are from the surrounding mountains of Asheville (to give you an idea of how easy it is to meet people, I'll explain how I met the guy who drove us out to go on the walk, called Zack. The girl who picked me up from the greyhound had a friend called Jon who is the one I went downtown with. He met a girl called Ann there, who had a friend called Katie. Katie lived with a girl called Kelsey and Zack was Kelsey's boyfriend. And I spent a whole day with this wonderful people I just met, then they even let me crash on their couch for a night and drove me to the bus station in the morning!)

Anyway, I'm actually in Nashville at the moment but I'll do a new entry for here once I've been here a bit longer (although so far it seems really cool).
