Finally made it!
Well, I'm in Europe. Netherlands specifically. It is definately a culture shock. Everyone rides bikes, speaks English fluently (Dutch is their primary language), and has blonde hair (mostly). I'm experiencing a stay in the hostel for the first time, and it's definately interesting. It's basically a room with three sets of bunk beds (6 beds total). Hopefully my roomates are English speaking, as I'm already starting to miss home (that's just the culture shock talking).
Tomorrow, I'll meet up with me tour group, so that should lift my spirits a bit being near fellow Americans. Well, I need to wrap this up soon since the hostel has only one working public computer and there's like three people hovering behind me wanting to check their email and such. I'll try to upload some pictures soon. In fact, I'd do it right now, but this computer doesn't appear to have USB ports. Bummer.
Well until my next blog....
have a good time!

Well, I hope it's not too weird staying at the hostel, but at least you can say you've done it.

Hey Bro! Glad you made it! I am looking forward to enjoying Europe vicariously through you. Tell us more about the culture shock--would love to have good examples to use for the next time I teach SOC 100.
By the way, Betsy and Cameron say hello.
Hugs,
Carolyn (your *older* sister)
