Gramercy Riff: September 2009
http://gramercyriff.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
View my complete profile. Its all about me. Saturday, September 26, 2009. Day 4 and 5 - Stockholm. My Stockholm Card had until 1:30pm until it turned into a pumpkin. Unfortunately, the time limit ran out before I could visit the Stadshuset tower, but that wasn't too cost prohibitive to worry about. Still, it would've been a nice touch to have completed everything on the to-do list before the card expired. I grabbed the bus back into the city center and headed down to the Stadshuset. Day 3 - Stockholm.

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Sunday, July 27, 2008. Another Reason My Church Kicks Ass! Today, we sang Christmas carols in a sweltering sanctuary, complete with a decorated lit up tree. It was to remind us that love, charity, and acceptance of others aren't to be focused on in December alone. Thursday, July 17, 2008. 90 Years Has July. Today marks 90 years since that fateful night. Such a somber anniversary. If you can call it that. That the remains found last year are. Summer classes star...

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Sunday, June 14, 2009. Photos of Darmstadt, Frankfurt, and Mainz. I am finally putting up the photo albums of my short trip to Germany in February. By short I mean I left on a Friday and returned on a Monday. I'm still surprised at how much I managed to see given those few days, but it all made an impression on me. Saturday, June 13, 2009.

Gramercy Riff: September 2010

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Sunday, September 19, 2010. Day 8 - Poland. I finally got a good night's rest and an amazingly full breakfast. I was prepared for walking Krakow this day. I had made friends at the hostel and palled around with one of them for the day as we walked most of the main area of the city, called Old Town. We ate at Ariel. I loved the hostel I stayed in and met some great people. Greg and Tom. Day 7 - Poland. I took the city bus out to Osweicim, which oddly enough, is ...

Gramercy Riff: August 2009
http://gramercyriff.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
View my complete profile. Its all about me. Friday, August 21, 2009. Getting Nearer to NOLA. So, the flights have been booked and the hotel is reserved. I bought my Streetwise map of the city and we're ready to go. Now, I'm just researching where to eat for three whole days - and then some. In New Orleans, food is big business. Also, I'm bummed out about one thing. I may not get to see any Fabergé eggs at the NOMA, as they are out on the road touring. Still, there are some. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Thursday, July 30, 2009. Stockholm, Slowly Getting There. I've just booked my accommodations and am feeling much more secure about this trip to Stockholm. I'm also becoming more comfortable about staying in hostels. There wasn't much of a second thought given about staying in one considering the outrageous expense of Scandinavian cities. I learned this in my travels to Denmark a few years ago. Thursday, July 23, 2009. NOLA, N-O-L-A, NOLA. Friday, July 10, 2009.

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Saturday, October 17, 2009. JFK - KBP - KRK - JFK. After my whirlwind visit to Russia last year, I figured I'd top myself with a trip to the Ukraine next month. It's the annual November trip, which seems to build as the years go on, and this will be no different. I'm staying primarily in Kiev with a day trip to Chernobyl. Yes, THAT. Chernobyl. I will then move onto Lvov for a day before heading to Krakow, Poland - my final stop. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Tuesday, November 18, 2008. The One Where I Learn Cyrillic. So, after hunkering down and practicing, I can say somewhat confidently that I think I can manage. I've got quite a job ahead of me though, so that confidence might just go out the window, or fail me at an all too important moment. Who knows if this knowledge will be retained past my trip. I need to learn a language for school and Russian has been a serious contender in my decision making. Naturally, t...

Gramercy Riff: February 2009

View my complete profile. Its all about me. Saturday, February 21, 2009. Where I've Been in 2008. I stumbled upon a travel meme. What you do is list all of the towns or cities where you spent at least one night away from home during 2008. Mark with a star if you had multiple non-consecutive stays. I was on an overnight bus in Estonia and an overnight train in Russia. So, I don't know how that fits into this meme! Thursday, February 19, 2009. Day 3 - Finishing up Frankfurt. Wednesday, February 18, 2009.
