s on the TB
Darn schedule changes, I was told that Armageddon's not until 2012
We were in Juneau when Gov Palin resigned this summer
, maybe it was something we did?
Frankly, my dears,
the locals didn't give a damn one way or the other; too busy hawking authentic, made-in-China, Alaskan souveniers.
The Governor didn't answer the door when we came a-knocking for tea either, not very welcoming.
I can attest that US foreigners (Alaskans) are a clean sort. Check out the pristine, lace curtains of the mansion; probably can thank the unionized help for that
rolleyes:lame segue as to original thread topic relevance)
I'm thinking said curtains were a cheap, knockoff on Bavarian lace ones, wonder who could verify?

(btw, I walk barefoot in a hotel room, but occasionally wipe my tray on a air plane, not because of the germs, but because I like it to be clean and not sticky or so!)
You are absolutely right about the "dirt and smelly" part.
Even the kids were like, huh? You know I have not been nearly as many place as most people on these boards, but of the places I have been only Switzerland has cleaner public spaces than Germany. Not sanitized, just clean mind you
Okay, I know everyone doesn't want to see and do as much as I do, but that so excessivly the other way to me. None the less, some of the parks and beaches in our own little area could be fiflthy in summer time as well
