munich
the trains always run on time. and theres so many buildings to look up at. you may also want to look down and pay attention to where you are going. the bicycles outnumber the cars. and they mean business. of course, everyone means business.
in short- this is an amazing place. and its not the umlauts talking. nor is it the beer, of which ive sampled dozens of wonderful litres. after greece and its 'latin craziness', I find myself mesmerized and staring down straight spaces. inspired to create. color outside the lines. walk diagonally down its geometric streets. it reminds me of growing up. many hugs. and much perfectionism.
but I'll settle on two paragraphs. for now that will do. then, when we get back next week I'll have rehearsals again. singing 'sunday bloody sunday' with Irish drinking buddies was a nice substitute. but I'm used to singing for hours. and the flavor in my mouth is getting bitter for it. today we make for the alps. and I still havn't seen the sound of music. I can fake it. mountains have a way of buckling the knees.

have you ever skinny dipped in the meditteranean?
I highly recommend it.
