Never Say Never, Volume II

Things I Never Expected To Do or See; Volume II:

  • watch a man carefully place his Pomeranian on top of a station turnstyle in order to feed it from his hands (Florence);
  • see a police force mobilized by segways (Florence);
  • see a woman train her dog to panhandle by getting it to ‘beg’ over a small bucket of change (Paris);
  • darn a hole in a pair of socks for which I paid a dollar;
  • run, so as not to miss Act I of the opera in Vienna;
  • stay in a room with a balcony over a canal in Venice;

    So what kind of card game did you loose in order to have to have your picture taken here?? Or did you just want to be the “butt” of a joke?

    Tonight there is an “End of the Summer” party here – Ottoman BBQ with music and dances Turkish style I believe. We’re going with Andy & Nicky from Sandpiper so WILL be fun. Too bad it wasn’t next week.

    Five more sleeps!
