                                                building in santorini
hello all. in the land of high priced time pieces, banks with so much money in them they don't know what do with it all, lambos, ferraris, bentleys, jags, maseratis are all over the place. haven't tried the chocolete yet, that is today. well i got cut off the internet so i had a ton written, but don't want to retype. had a blast on the cruise, we got to zurich yesterday afternoon from venice. met so many people from all over the world, and hope to see some of them in the future. america is the best country hands down, here is why...

-we got charged 70 us dollars in istanbul for 3 liters of coke

-before we could get our tickets in venice to leave for zurich, it cost 100 us dollars because our bags weighed more than the limit, but in america we would have been under the limit

-last night i paid 12 dollars for a big mac meal

there were other things, just want back home. the euro is crazy, everything is just so expensive.

anyhow we are about to head out for the day. here are some pics.

in santorini....

just got done riding the atv's around the island of santorini. it was great weather and the place is amazing. by far the prettiest place we have visited. when we got here we rode donkeys up the hill and it was fun. my cousin had trouble with his donkey and had to entice it to move with a treat. we are just about to head back to the ship to head to the last of the greek isles, can't remember the name at the moment. anyhow i guess that is all for now, can't put any pics on right now, but soon i hope. i am getting sad this trip is coming to an end, i have started to lose track of what day it is and the time, it is nice to not have the cell phone on me at all times. had 4 deserts with dinner last night, was doing good with getting the gym, but the last couple of days i have slacked. well i am out of here for now talk to you all soon.

i love croatia!!

this place was awesome. some of the hottest women in europe! they were all over the place. took a bus tour of the city, and then walked around the downtown area. i will definitly come back here, it reminded me of monte carlo. we have a day at sea tomorrow and it will be nice to relax. well athens in a couple days, so i will get back to you all very soon. can't get pics on here yet, so have to find an internet cafe on shore. will tell more about what we have been up to.

i love the swiss

in switzerland right now, just for a couple of hours until we catch our flight to venice. anyhow flight was not to bad. just found out my little brother is going on his mission to Hermosillo, Sonora Mexico. congrats paulo... talk to you all later.

$1.59 american for one stupid euro

that is stupid. so i guess i won't be buying much over there, but i will be eating tons of gelato while in venice. we leave in the morning, going to be a long day of flying. leave thursday morning, get to venice friday afternoon. that sucks. well i will update this thing asap. take care. peace!

well a few more days until i am gone. thursday we leave for italy. going on a cruise, so looking forward to relaxing and exploring some new places. check back for some updates and pictures. i will look like a tourist with the camera, but oh well. hope all is well with everyone. take care.

wow it has been a while

where does the time go???? jan 27 was the last post. not much has happened. just been working a ton, and hanging out. i am ready for the warm weather. and it snowed this morning. i can't wait to get the scooter out and on the road, i hate gas prices. well we leave in two weeks for europe, i just want to leave now and not come back for a while. but the dumb euros think they can charge me $1.57 american for one of their stupid euros. good thing we are on the ship and not in hotels and eating out every meal. anyhow that is what i am really excited for, we are going with the utah blaisdells which will be awesome! i will try to update this as much as possible while over there with pics and posts about what we are doing. well it is time for bed, talk to you all soon.
p.s. have to give a whats up to my new peeps anna and brian!
peace!

the begining of another week...

well haven't done much today. just have been kind of lazy. watched one of my favorite movies today, good will hunting. i love that show. anyhow not much else happening. i mentioned earlier that our trip to kenya got canceled, bummed about that, but we still wanted to go on a trip during that time. after discussing it with everyone, we decided to head back over to europe again and do another cruise. venice, croatia, istanbul, and the greek isles. i can't wait, the utah blaisdells are going with us, never been on a trip with them, really looking forward hanging out with them. been snowboarding a few times already, hopefully get to go this week. well the song of the day is between the bars by elliott smith, one of my favorite songs. hope all is well with everyone. talk to you all soon.

song of the day

i can't stop listening to everythings magic by angels and airwaves. the rest of the album is alright, but that song is pretty catchy. woke up and there was snow on the ground. hopefully we get more of that stuff. the weekend hasn't been to exciting, looking forward to get back to work, just to keep myself busy. i want to get out of boise right now, maybe fly somewhere warm. tt, thanks for the comments, i am going to somewhere in april, don't you worry about that...

a new year already....

hey there. well just thought i would say hi to everyone. it is saturday the 5th and just bumming around, might go boarding today, but just cleaning up my huge living space. i finished a big project. i went through 25,000 pictures on my computer and picked out 400 or so to put a hard bound photo portfolio together. it was a big pain in the butt. it is done though and can't wait to show you guys. they had a special on the books so it was a decent price. i also got a copy of the macey book i made tom and sheri last year for christmas.
well this year didn't start out the way i wanted it to. our africa trip got canceled. there is political instability in kenya and they are killing each other. so we thought it better not to go. but we are planning something else for that time. hopefully we can get something to work.
anyhow all is well here in boise. hope to talk to you all soon. cheers.
