    • Lots of Pictures I've spent much of the afternoon and evening continuing to work on scanning in old photos that I've had lying jumbled up in various boxes. Quite a few have been scanned in and uploaded to my Flickr account. ➡
    • Who’s going to die tonight? A few weeks ago, after the promo for tonight's episode of Lost promised that, 'one of these survivors will be lost forever,' I put a poll up (both here and on my LiveJournal) to see who people thought was going to be the unlucky party. Here's the results... ➡

Starting with a few days in Washington, D.C., we travelled through Germany, Austria, Hungary, Yugoslavia, Italy, and Greece. ➡
