Leaving on a Jet Plane...

It's so sad, my vacation is almost over. I really do look forward to returning to Moscow, but I will really miss Europe. I feel as if I have made a new friend that I won't see for a few years.

So I am back in Berlin right now, and I fly out in about 9 hours. Hopefully there will be a little sleep time between now and then. I really love Berlin, it's definitely one of my favorite cities.

I haven't been online in a few days, but a lot of ground has been traveled, and a lot of photos taken. I was in Amsterdam yesterday and today. I must say the center is really disgusting at night. It offends even me. I think I was offered cocaine/crack at least 8 times. And waking past coffee shops definitely gives you a whiff of something not quite right.

I rented a bike today and biked all around Amsterdam. I also saw the Rembrandt house. Amsterdam is really an amazing city, once you look past all the wierdos. I guess I am just not as tolerant and liberal as thought I was. Oh well. And with that I am signing off. I'll talk to you later from Russia.

Love,
Arthur
