an airplane over the sea: Utrecht, friends and bad pasta
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008/07/utrecht-friends-and-bad-pasta.html
Friday, July 4, 2008. Utrecht, friends and bad pasta. Holland, Holland, Holland. I asked one of Maud's friends about the difference between 'Holland' and 'the Netherlands'. They means the same thing, essentially, now, but once upon a time 'Holland' was the rich part, and 'the Netherlands' was the rest of it. That's where we're staying. Not there, not in that tree, but that's the view from our window. It's amazing waking up to the light streaming in through there - less amazing that it comes in at...We ha...

an airplane over the sea: The depressing stuff...
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008/07/depressing-stuff.html
Wednesday, July 16, 2008. Sunday night Jes and I were totally wiped and so decided something had to give. We'd had enough of old buildings and old bridges and old art, so decided to do something fun and normal. So Monday morning, we packed up our things and headed off to the zoo! A wolf doing poo! She wasn't lying. He was doing poo. One of them was real hungry and kept banging on the door of that building to let the waiter know he was ready to eat now. Jes and the pygmy zebras. What a trip it's been....

an airplane over the sea: Berlin to Prague...
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008/07/berlin-to-prague.html
Saturday, July 19, 2008. So Prague is really old and cool. Given the tiredness on the train, we were pretty grumpy when we got to Prague. The whole place smelled like sausages and boiled potatoes. We got to an ATM to take out some Krona, and could only get 1000czK notes, but when we tried to buy train tickets to get to our hostel, no-one would accept them! Blackmarket breath mints are clearly a big problem here. With a torch on his head and started getting ready for bed. Anyway, the next morning, he ...

an airplane over the sea: Funny things about other countries
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008/07/funny-things-about-other-countries.html
Monday, July 7, 2008. Funny things about other countries. A special little post I'd like to call. Funny things about other countries". We'll start with food. And to kick us off (well, we really kicked things off with the buttermilk-on-museli dillema the other morning, but we'll move on), a collection of images from a recent trip to the supermarket. There were a lot of giggles about Hazelnoot Pasta on toast. They expand in water? And it's all dan's fault, see the brand). Arm, to be exact. Ok, let's al...

an airplane over the sea: July 2008
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 27, 2008. So this is it then! I'm back in Melbourne, got in yesterday morning. Head is still flying, jetlag is weirder than I remember. I think people are already sick of hearing the words "In Berlin." and "What I love about Holland is.". Just deal with it. Bizarre smoking stations on the street! You're not meant to smoke and walk at the same time,. So you stop by this little bus-stop-esque thing and smoke,. Then keep walking. Hilarious. Do you love that it's called 'Manners Street'? Not muc...

an airplane over the sea: June 2008
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 30, 2008. Croissant, baguette, Gerard Depardieu. Internet has been impossible to find, despite the guide book saying that "internet cafes abound in Paris". Fuckers. I'm on a French keyboard and everything is different so if there are any typing errors, I apologise. There's more stuff but internet is over now and this keyboard has fried my brain. Today: Louvre and cemetary. Thursday, June 26, 2008. Risotto, travel plans and Wicked. They'll glare at you. What? Tuesday, June 24, 2008. We had lu...

an airplane over the sea: Paris to Amsterdam...
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008/07/paris-to-amsterdam.html
Wednesday, July 2, 2008. And I basically cried with excitement because I was hoping to do exactly that. We've developed this thing, we have, where we ask a question - Do you want the top of the bottom bunk? And on the count of three, we both have to say the answer we want. So it goes a little like this:. Jes: Do you want the top bunk? Dan: 1. 2. 3. Simultaneously) Jes: Top / Dan: Bottom. ANYWAY. Paris to Amsterdam. Let me do a bit more on Paris, because the last post wasn't really sufficient, in my mind.

an airplane over the sea: Czech this shit out...
http://airplaneoverthesea.blogspot.com/2008/07/czech-this-shit-out.html
Monday, July 21, 2008. Czech this shit out. We have seen so many people wearing tshirts that say "Prague - Czech me out! That I now am finding it difficult to fight the urge to punch them in the back of the head. Let me begin by sazing that the keyboards here trade the y and the z, and I am trying real hard to remember, but if I slip up, dont kill me. I also cant find the apostrophe, or most of the other punctuation stuff. Theres not much else to add really. There probably is but I forget. Dan is part la...
