Have fun, and don’t drink the water. Be sure to take some American dollars; they’re accepted just about everywhere, and the Peso worthless. ---

Okay, okay! We’re gonna get excited but let’s get strapped in first. Osip’s riding shotgun so I’ll ride tail. That means we’ve got to yank the trunk lid and run a CO[sub]2[/sub] line out to the trunk, er, tailgun (we’ll want to keep the liquids near the center of gravity, in case 'pony needs to maneuver). The seemingly scrap trunk lid (er, boot) can double briefly as a brushguard, at least until we get past the German/Polish border. ---

Hey, I’ve got the beer, here! It’s the watery American kind, but I’m _Freezerburn_ won’t mind a few dozen empties rolling around. I wonder if this thing is really the speed machine Coldy says it is? ::slams back from g-force; _spills beer!_:: Hmmm, guess it is. Uh, Blue? Are you _they_ drive on the left in Holland? Mind if I sit in your lap, beatle? Persephone looks like she’s getting ready to do the 151 and lighter trick again.

Have a great time **Coldy**! We’ll miss you and can’t wait to hear about your adventures. Now, are you guys going to come pick me up in Heidelberg or not? I think we need to take this show on the Autobahn. That poor peugot has been stuck on those lame 120k p/hr Dutch highways for too long. :::runs off to pack beer, prezels and lederhosen:::: ---

You might want to be careful of altitude sickness in Mexico - I believe some of that country is actually above sea level. Have a good one and don’t corrupt that English girlie. Holland - the definition of low life. ---
