The first real casualty on this trip was my ankh necklace that I left in Sydney. My understanding is that Chris was nice enough to send that back to me. Net result: I’m still in possession of my necklace. Second casualty: my towel that I left in Dublin on the edge of my bed. Air dry or recycled t-shirt ever since. Not really an issue and I might just “confused” a white t-shirt of mine with a hotel towel… Third casualty: Today, post-tour (more on that maybe tomorrow), I left a present that I bought Amy, the new Economist, and Tom Wolfe’s “Hooking Up” (with my Eurail Pass Protection voucher inside—just the voucher: the pass hasn’t been further from me than three feet in three weeks) at the McDonalds register and when I finally realized what I had done, the angry-looking staff played dumb and shook their heads. I think they ganked it because I’m a stupid bloody American Tourist™.
Plans
Going out with some people tonight then off to Budapest tomorrow morning.
