Rockin' in the Free World
Hey all!Sorry for no posts, but Jen and I were both at the Pukkelpop concert in Belgium. Other than having the Dresden Dolls cancel out (they were the reason I went, but it was still worth it) it was awesome! I have so many new bands to check out. (Wish I could give more details. Nick Cave blew me away, the Hives totally had me, and yes Joe, I actually saw the Polyphonic Spree. It's better live than even the CDs are.)
So for the next 4 days, Jen and I are at "Lucky Lake Campground"(We can't decide if it sounds more like it's from a cheesy murder mystery, or a cheesy porno.) We even have our own little welfare trailer for tonight! (After 4 days with nylon walls, we needed something just a little more solid for at least 1 night)
Well, gotta be quick. Our toasties (Grilled cheese sandwhiches! God, I miss those!) are finished, and we're gonna go eat them in the hammocks, next to the giant plastic elephant water fountain. (Oh god, I wish I could post pictures! I have the overwhelming urge to dress like trailer trash!)

Location: Amsterdam, Netherlands
Wearing: Same jeans I've worn for the last 5 days, same jacket I've worn for the last month, black shirt that smells funny.
Day's Activities: Didn't really get much sleep due to camping drunks next to us. Packed up, trained it across the country up to Amsterdam, my final city. 4 days to go!
Thing you miss: SHOWERS! That's the highlight for tonight, and I'm so excited, you have no idea.

Lots of love from all here
