Hope you feel better. Feeling sick over seas is nasty...hope you are better. Sorry you did not get to try the delicious sausages in Germany...they can be so good, but probably not if you don't feel good...It is so great that you are seeing and doing so much...but you are missing the gelato...can get French Fries with mayo in Amsterdam...love you, Gram
Amsterdam is different! You have to be careful in Amsterdam, but wait until you see the Van Gogh museum and try to get to Anne Frank's house. I really love that city because it is so different...lots of drugs etc. and around the train station is especially bad...keep having fun...can hardly wait to talk to you about all these wonderful places...love you...Gram
What a marvelous time you are having!! Wish I were there with you! I have never been to S. and sure would like to go...are you going to Germany? Remember you are 1/4 German so would be fun...love you and keep having a fun time...Gram
Travel This week must be the week of travel, I was in Flagstaff for Arizona Boy's State, mom and dad are in Nashville, and you traveled to another different country. You'll get used to the altitude, after a week at 7000 ft, I was fine. It is ironic though as I am reading Frankenstein and Victor Frankenstein is from Geneva and keeps talking about the beautiful Swiss landscape. Have fun, big bro.
Nutella I will get you some nutella...they sell it here and usually have it on buffets in Europe..a kid that was here from Germany visiting some of our friends (he was a relative of some sort) won't eat anything else...keep on having fun...love you , Gram
Pop's comment Pop says that you write so well that he feels like he is there with you..I agree...I think you are turning into a gelato junkie...yum...love you, Gram
I love Tuscany isn't Florence and Tuscany the most wonderful place! I want Pop to go there..you are right the pasta is so delicious. I am so glad you are there..hope you get to see "David" he is something else...love you, Gram
Wow! Keep on enjoying and having fun Matt. I am so glad that you are able to do this wonderful trip..can hardly wait to share experiences with you..love you, Gram
London is so great Oh Matt, I wish i had told you about the "hop on, hop off" bus..would have saved you some walking and really fun. I am so glad that you love London..so do Pop and I...love you, Gram
Isn't London just fantastic? Hey #1 Grandson.
I am so glad that you are having a great time! Hope that little bit of money we sent will help somewhat. I learned that you don't change money on the street. Best to go to a bank...better rate of exchange.
I am so sad to hear about Dottie, but glad to know that she will be o.k.
I love you and enjoyed all so far...anxious to read about the rest of the trip...Pop and I hate to leave europe when we are there...love you! Gram
Don't eat Just don't eat anything described as the quinto cuarto(fifth quarter), it is all the random bits of meat that we don't usually eat in America, like sweetmeats, intestines, etc. as Rome was the butcher capital of Italy. Glad you are enjoying yourself, bro. School ended today, finally a senior, one more year.
If you see any random historical stuff just think of me, since hopefully I am going to try to study abroad in Italy in college(considering I want to major in History with a focus on Rome)
Have fun! Arrivederci!
London bridges falling down....... Enjoy London and all it has to offer. I can't wait to hear about your next adventure. Talk about living vicariously through your children. Yep. Dottie is doing well. She has her LAST pill today. Maybe she'll keep her nose out of the next snake hole. I'm going to put on my U2 CD now.
Love ya,
Mom
Boo Hoo You're kidding me right? You're going to Europe for a month and you're complainging about fitting all your clothes in your bag! Hey Matt- thought you'd enjoy a little sarcasm from the Chamber Weekly Queen who's doing your job while you're gone. Post again when you have something else to whine about.
miss you oh you will be missed very much. please don't let those gross perverted european men lay their hands on you. we may never see you again here in the ol' grand canyon state.
