-[[agimg 2003/08_august/brugge_08152003/005_canal_in_brugge_again_08142003.jpg ]]I recently got back from my trip all around the baltic on Oceana Cruises. We started in Stockholm, Sweden and ended in Dover, England. Along the way I got to see Finland, Russia, Aaland, Estonia, Belgium, Holland, and Norway. Life on board the ship was pretty nice, and the food was excelent. However, I'm not quite sure if I fit in all to well with the average occupant of a cruise ship. I travel to experience, not to see things. Of course, like any other traveller, there are certain things that I would really like to see along my way. Yet, to live and travel in a glass enclosed box looking down on residents living their lives is not for me. I want to be with the people, walk amoungst them, eat what they eat, see what they see. I want to try to catch a glipse of the gestalt through which they view the world.[[agimg 2003/08_august/brugge_08152003/044_houses_in_the_canals_08152003.jpg ]]
