stolen photos and a full stomach (finally!)

so i stole a bunch of photos from friends. this one is of me and ben outside a mall in russia (don't worry, i didn't go there by choice, they made us go. i swear)
in the overnight bus from latvia to russia. 17hrs. so fun.
after another one of our all day bus rides (and i really mean all day), we decided to take a stroll through the countryside in the netherlands and happened upon these cows.

me and denny on the baltic sea


i just ate a huge meal. I am so happy. the serving sizes here are a slightly on the smaller side, so i'm kinda hungry all day. but since tonight was our last night in prague and I had alot of extra crowns (the currency here), i pigged out at dinner. Had this huge pancake thing with pork inside, also ate what was left of the meals of the two girls i went with, then had some ice cream. life is good. since my last blog a couple of days ago, not too too much has happened. we've had a couple of classes, we went on a corporate visit to black and decker and saw the assembly lines that made dewalt tools, went to a five story club, ahhh, what else? walked around the city a couple a times, watched some soccer in the town square, a bunch of us played ultimate frisbee for a couple of hours today. that was definitely what i needed. I think i have a mild form of ADD or somethin because i'm realizing i can't focus in class or on our tours, and i think it is because i've really had no opportunity to exercise. at college, i'm either lifting, running, playing tennis, or a combo of those everyday, and here that isn't happening. i'm trying to pushups/crunches every night, but it isn't enough. so a few hours of running around throwing the frisbee this afternoon was amazing.

tomorrow we are off for another all day bus trip. we are going to innsbruck, austria for 5-6 days, which should be cool. but on our bus trip we are stopping off at Dachau (concentration camp). should be pretty intense and depressing but it is a significant part of our world's history, so I'm glad we are going.

and happy fathers day!
