[This is a continuation of the travel diary I kept during a European vacation during the summer of 1999. I figured I’d best type it up . . . you know, in case of fire, alien invasion, etc. — Present-day Carrie]<\/em><\/p>\n

While I’m thinking about it (& cause Steven reminded me) here’s a tenative Present List:<\/p>\n

Mom — I dunno, something English
\n Dad — a Frenchman punching bag, prefferably a politician (seriously, as long as its not from France, he’s happy)
\n Cathy — I haven’t a clue
\n Grandmother — too easy
\n Jennifer* — she’d get a kick out of a naked statuette (can you tell I’m in a car?)
\n Joey — the Blarney stone or something naughty<\/p>\n

That’s all I can think of.<\/p>\n

We’re in a car (duh, look at my handwriting) heading toward Atlanta. To get in a plane. I don’t like planes.<\/p>\n

Me, Paul, & Steven are in this car with Mrs. Williams, and Mrs. Byram is driving the rest. I don’t like planes. I also don’t like writing in a car, so I’ll continue this when I’m less shaken.<\/p>\n

[later, and in a different ink color]<\/em><\/p>\n

Yes! I survived the plane!<\/p>\n

Ohh, guess its day 2 . . .<\/p>\n

*Jennifer was my college roommate. Joey was a good friend of both mine and Steven’s.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
