The box, nearly full. George himself did not eventually end up inside (but we could have fit him). - PICT0032
In Amsterdam, we stayed with Sarah's friend Kacee, who lives there, and Josh, whom she lives with. They were incredibly gracious and incredibly fun. The following are a few shots of their beautiful apartment. - PICT0034
When I have a home again, I want to rip off their plant style--orchids and cacti. Beautiful! - PICT0036
The couch on the right was my bed. - PICT0037
After a first night of eating tapas and meeting a couple of Kacee's cool friends, we went out shopping and for a quick lunch. - PICT0038
Naturally, we were distracted from grocery shopping by the Heineken brewery/museum. Here are Sarah and I by a big old copper drum for...brewing, one can only guess. - PICT0039
And here we are in the bar, conveniently placed halfway through the museum. Three beers were included in the price of admission, and we ended up with a few more... - PICT0041
After a 2-3 hour break, we staggered out into the light to buy dinner. Here, Sarah pokes a fish in the market. - PICT0043
Okay, so I looked like a tourist in the market taking this shot. But really, how could I not? Look at all the flavors! - PICT0044
Sarah said hello to every dog we met in Europe, usually calling them "le chat" ("cat" in French). She wanted her picture with this one. He was pretty cool. - PICT0046
The market. The blue sky and 80 degree weather was very atypical. - PICT0050
Kacee buys olives, etc. - PICT0051

As friends begin to arrive, Leslie drafts them for a program-making sweatshop. - IMG 4012
They are very good sports about the whole thing. - IMG 3176

Leslie and Bryan's marriage turns 3. Hasty iphone photo in the morning serves as insurance in case they fail to get a better shot. - IMG 0409
