So I finally leaving Europe today after six weeks of fun and hilarity. Tony was up early this morning to replace the brakes and fix the gears on Christine's bike before we left (nothing changes). It was funny watching out the window as Chris tried out her newly fixed bike with Dad looking on. The trip has been great - and I have remained relativ...

BIG NEWS EVERYONE..... NATE FINALLY GOT A HAIRCUT!!!! YEAHHHHHHH! His hair was completely out of control and the final straw came when he visited a local convenience store and was followed around the entire time by the manager (to make sure he didn't steal anything)!

So this week we both got bikes. Andrea spiffed up her bike from Johan and splurged on an awesome basket, and Nate couldn't take the jealousy any more so he finally gave in and bought a bike of his own. Today was our first day riding our bikes together in the city.... oh what an experience!!! Think of as many bikes as you can imagine and then cra...
