One Final Baguette

Well we made it. It was fun and exciting, tiresome and lazy, new and old, crazy and weird. I have to say I had a great time all around. There is so much we did and all of you have read about, and so much still to do the next time around. I cant believe how fast it went of course......I remember thinking or even saying to Jeremy the first few days that the first week is always slow, and then after that we wont know what happened. I think that is the best way to describe it and seemingly what actually did happen.

We Stayed in the Dam until Thursday morning where Jer met back up with me. Ross and I went out on the town wednesday night with the intent of staying up until about 6am so Ross could go directly to the airport to catch his flight and I was just preparing myself for East Coast time.We made it fairly late, but around 5am we were back in the room looking tired. I told him if he fell asleep I wouldnt be able to stay up to wake him.....he mumbled something about having 9 alarms set and then I called the front desk to make sure they would call at 6am. I vaguely recall waking up around 9am, looking over seeing the room phone off the hook and Ross resolutely snoring. I laughed, and then he awoke to my jeers. As I was falling back asleep I think he said something like "I found a flight later today for only 65Euros......great ime going back to bed"

That was our last night in Amsterdam. I blame the bartender who gave us all those free shots for Ross's missed flight, and I would like to thank him also for his uncompromising charity.

Jeremy and I went to Brussels in Belgium for one night on our way back to Paris. The trains are so easy to use and much faster then driving. Brussels was interesting, I would like the chance to explore it more one day. We arrived in Paris on Friday afternoon, helped Julie put some of the furniture in her newest apartment and toasted to the end of one trip and the beggining of the next.

I am in Foxwoods now, back on American soil. Ime playing poker on Monday, and if I can make it through day three on Wednesday and to the final table, I expect any and all to come up and join me here Friday night. Well I just jinxed myself there......ahhh I hate being superstitious anyways. Whatever, its %50 skill, %30 luck, and %20 cohones......ime feeling good about it. You can watch online at www.cardplayer.com I think. Foxwoods World Poker Finals.

Thanks for coming along with us, it was alot of fun and we appreciate everyone who enjoys this. We havent quite decided what to do now. I kinda like this blog thing, so it is possible I will start my own rant more just about my life and maybe some poker stuff. Have fun and keep in touch!
