European Medley

In Venice i had to provide the ticket office with a timetable, apparently selling tickets and knowing what time train they're for is too much to handle.

In Auschwitz people were posing for photos. I think they may have missed the point...

Due to a government law, Italian internet cafes have to take a photocopy of your passport being giving internet access!

Ran into some Aussies in Venice that i'd met a month or so earlier in Edinburgh on a pub crawl! Didn't realise the first time we walked past eachother as i was distracted by Bo's t-shirt: 'To err is human, to arr is pirate'

Absinthne, agua and lime makes an awesome cocktail.

'One more for the road' is a dangerous saying when forever on the road!

Falafel.

Lots of people have just they're elbow tattooed. Others have all their arm except their elbow tattooed. Do they even out?

I spend far too much money when i go in a bookshop.

Going from Stockholm to Prague we had to change trains in Berlin. We should have had half an hour to make it to the next platform. Neither the lady in our cabin nor the conductor bothered to wake us up. I woke up with 8 minutes til the next train left. As we ran on, the doors closed about half a second behind us!

Lifts can be good places to pass a couple of hours at a train station when it's cold outside.
