Europe: Funny Things.

I would be remiss if I only captured the art of Europe, and not the funny things on this twelve day Europe adventure on the marraige train...  Like the fact we ate a meal of randomness like potato salad at a truck stop got stuck in our little car on the sixth story of a parking garage, only 5 minutes from where we picked the little half-pint car up, unable to get out or get the ticket to let us free!  Lol!  Or the time we saw this crazy old guy peeing in the middle of the busiest park in Cannes because half-way through his business, the door slide wide up, and there he stood, with nothing between him, and us, and the whole public!  Or the old couple half-naked on the beach, him dressed like he could go to our church, but then standing in a collar and sweater with a foot tucked ready to put on his jeans and only whittie-tighties and tall man-legs with too many inches between!  Then add our nasty picnic on the train, meant to be in Luxumeberg park but throwing on our train trays and everything rotting the worst smell ever -- so embarrassing is Muenster cheese!  Then there's the fact we at a place called Milwaukee  seriously -- a burger and fries for Mark and ground chicken lump for me, not exactly what we'd plan for lake-side Geneva, but it was the only place open before seven, so in went we!  And the time we hid like stowaways one leg of the train, simultaneously sending a wink and a prayer and holding our air for Levanto air -- not to mention the fine from the train before!  We laugh about stupid Foxity bus tour, where I fell asleep from so many boring circles and stuck on an open bus just wishing I could pee.  And how heavy our frick'n packs are and the fact that we wake up with a waddle from sore legs and backs and ankles toes. Dang it.  Or the B&B with separate side bed remotes to lift our legs or backs or both, propped up in hilarity.  And that we are sure we are the only backpackers who have hiked through Venice and stayed at the Hilton Stuckly, not to mention I was wearing a dress and ballet shoes with my 30 pound pack and two hands full...   Its pretty hilarious, and ridiculously fun and funny traveling with your life partner, gathering silly and stupid memories, like mementos along our marriage train.  :-)
