Good for the two of you for learning how to yell over the locals in a language neither of you speaks. ... hunger can be a strong motivator. 

What is this about trained pigs? E.B. White's character, Wilbur, wasn't real. I promise.

Scott -  Your description of Granada from your hostal, and your description of the Alhambra, are so vivid and alive.  I close my eyes, and I am there.  Thanks so much for describing in such detail and context.

Hey Scott - It's so fun reading about your adventures! I'm glad you're having such a great time. Spain sounds amazing.

I LOVE reading about your adventures. And now I going to have tapas for dinner tonight. 

 Spring has finally arrived in Boston.  We have had several days of delightful weather which was a welcome change to a week of cold, yucky rain.

 Midge's last day was  on Friday.  Very sad.  I am not quite sure what we are going to do without her.

Scott,

Art and tapas.  How about Plaza Major at night?  Madrid is really cool.  I'm glad you are able to do it cheaply.  When Steve and I were in Spain in 1999 we thought that Spanish food was as good as Italian, and much less expensive. 

Reiner Sofia is a great museum, but what is this dismissive tone about the Prado, which just happens to be my favotire museum?  The Goya section by itself is worthy of being a museum.  And how about the amazing Bosch triptych? 

Off to Granada?  Ah Scott, will you ever be the same after that?

Hey Scott, this all sounds so amazingly fantastic. Enjoy every moment except the food that just doesn't feel right. Enjoy...enjoy....enjoy... every

miraculous moment.....  

Also, I found the math problem, so that i can post a bit difficult.

I come from Casino people and that makes me want to make any number be whatever it needs to be...

Scott,

 Please read my message to Rebecca's message board.  It goes for you too.

   If you are still in Nice, you are right.  The museum's there are some of the best in the world.  I hope you were well enough to enjoy one or two of them.

    I just came back from the Barcelon exhibit in New York City.  Boy, are you in for a treat.

Hi Scott. When will you be back in the office? Can you get something out of the fourth floor storage for me? Where are you anyway? No, actually, I'm just bitter to be stuck here in the office while you're "stuck" in Nice. But don't worry about me. Take care. Peter

Hey Scott,  So glad to know that you are both safe and sound (except for the bad reaction to clams and cheese - YUK!). 

You must think we are a bunch of slouches here at YBUSA for not writing, but I never got the e-mail from you with your blog link - sorry!  It's been over a month since we have heard from you and I have to tell you that everyone has been quite concerned!  Anyway, your name came up during lunch yesterday and Sarah told us that she had it, so here I am.  I will forward it to everyone today!

Please know that WE MISS YOU!  Glad that things are going well, for the most part.  The trip sounds amazing and I cannot believe that you have been there a month already! 

Enjoy every moment and keep posting as we are all living vicariously through you!

If you get a chance - call.  I would love to chat - lots to talk about!  You can call me collect at home 781-938-9055 or my cell 978-979-0920 if you get the chance.  Hugs to both of you!  Midge

Sorry to hear you were sick, make sure to get plenty of fluids, eat regularly, and sleep regularly.  It is amazing how those simple things will combat most any disease.  Safe travels.

Good luck with the trip, I hope it's a great experience. Make sure to take photos of yourself in odd situations that we can use later for blackmail when you're running for governor.

Clever b******. I see that the "above post" I referenced actually becomes the "below post". I see what you're trying to do and I won't have any of it! Or not much of it, at least.

And why am I forced to solve challenging math problems (calculus, I believe) in order to post a message? This is crazy, like a dog and a frog playing high stakes poker.

Why'd you send me to a place that has nothing on it? NOTHING! I'm assuming from the above post's "Bon Voyage!" that you are going somewhere. I will further assume from the title, "Scotty Dog in Europe", that you are going to Europe. So if that's the case, have fun. Not a lot of fun. You don't deserve it since you've ignored our friendship for the past 2+ years. So only have a little fun.

Visit my empire if you get the chance.
