bike. and then some.

so I've got this bike now. it's new to me, but it's old in general. it's an old-fashioned looking, green, rusty, rickety bike with a big, springy seat, a wiry basket on front and a bell. no gears, but it does the job. sometimes the bell rings without me winding it up...I think it's like the Herbie of bikes if you know what I mean. I bought it for 8 pounds off of some kid in east london. God knows where he got it. he might have pulled it out of a lake? hopefully? either way, it's my new ride. I think if it was going to have a name, it would be Emerald (it's green but certainly not Emerald. Still, the Emerald shines through the dirt and rust). I'll post a picture soon (I'm having camera issues lately urgh, but I'll get them sorted).

In other news, I have further photos of Vienna and Bratislava to post this week. AND, am soon preparing for a little weekend jaunt in the Netherlands for my B-day!!Yes, none other than the city of bikes, sex shows, the Van Gogh museum, and legal cannabis: Amsterdam! yay! yay! yay!

Happy Memorial Day for those of you in the U.S. hopefully enjoying your day off today. I've heard (though hot maybe) your weather's much nicer than ours! Stay well and stay tuned, mes amis!
