6/2/73

 Artie playing friend of the devil in at the airport. Marianne looking on with tearful eyes. Sentimental sweetness. Why do girls always fall through those who would destroy them. At night we went to huset. We met Jack Jack Miles Janice Janet Gary Mike Susan and Dan there. Got really stoned first. Then danced and drank the night away. I love dancing. I love jazz. Great night. We missed the last bus so me Gary and Mike

 walked home. We got home at 4:00 in the morning and found ourselves locked out. We had a climb through the window waking up miles

6/3/73

An easy nothing day. Just took it easy. At night me Miles Jack Susie ebbe yakob and Marianne went to Tivoli. We saw the ballet pantomime, a tumbling act, and the boys guard we had several beers we walked around and went on the roller coaster screaming our lungs out. We played pinball. Miles was taking pictures all over. Everyone trying to forget what everybody knows that this is our last night together. It was a good last night ending with a display of fireworks.

I sent a package home I was now just waiting to leave sitting in my Copenhagen room. We left around 1:30. I was preparing this journey with starts with good feelings confidence and exuberance to the time we went to Amsterdam racked with guilt over Jack frustration over ria and depression over my patterns in life My time in Copenhagen seemed to be of different monthly cycles February being home sickness and end of streak March being unmaterialized hopes. April traveling and feeling good may finally getting it all together on the ferry there was a group of us from DIS and we sat on the deck and had a informal party. There was me Miles Jack Gary Janet Steve lesser Diane two girls from Michigan and one Canadian we were drinking and smoking hash on the sundeck. We were playing frisbee.we then got on the older bonds and met at one a rest up all of us drinking coffee and getting this laughing hysterically. Miles and I then drove to Luxembourg from 8:30 p.m. to 6:30 a.m. . We picked up two hitchhikers while doing so.

6/5/73

We arrived in Luxembourg and got on a train to Paris. we got into Paris and walk for about an hour and a half from the guy that the Nord to the Eiffel tower. We had a joyful reunion there as miles Jessica Arnie victor and I all arrived within 5 minutes of each other. We got a room at the hotel de la llore which was in the left bank. At night we had a good French meal at la boucherie. I had Bill the five of us then walked to the cafe where Hemingway and Joyce hung out Miles just came out he felt tired and decided to head back. Jessica was saying how she felt less pressurized in England and that she was full of stress and horny was not helpful due to his own neuroses.

Love is often not enough. I reach different conclusions of love from Europe realizing that I don't necessarily have to fight battles that maybe they don't need to fight and I'm overreacting from paranoia and awful hurt people do the same maybe I'm too self dependent and see betrayal where there is none. Future side note has I am dictating this some 50 years later and unfortunately I still have not learned enough of the lessons

          We woke up and once again had a very nice buffet breakfast at the hotel. We then checked out of the hotel and drove on the London beltway to Golder's Green. We drove down the street checking out the kosher section of London ,getting a brief glimpse of paths not taken and where Wendy's family may have ended up. However they probably would not be Orthodox, so they may not be correct.            We continue to drive down to Hempstead and I found a parking lot by the Heath. We had gotten used to pay and display but this one was different and you had to do it through the phone and  it took us about a half hour to 45 minutes to figure out how to charge to the parking lot We finally  figured it out and started walking around Hempstead. It was a fun neat little town. We walked around and saw all the old houses. I followed a path more or less through a good part of the town. We ate lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked down  to Hampstead square to St Mary's Catholic Church a

camp tac 2

I am writing a bit out of sequence. I went to TAC  at the end of my sophomore year of high school. I believe the camp experiences very much changed me, whether for the good or bad would depend on how one views it. I changed a lot there and what I loved is it allowed me to change. I think prior to that I was very introverted and very unsure of myself. I became much more confident and perhaps much more egotistical. I became much closer with sorge  and osstroff less friendly with kaminski Paul Fisher. I always think of those are some of my better summers and loved my summers at camp. That  and my junior year abroad were to some of my favorite memories. Reading about it brings back very good memories. I wasn't writing that extensively and it was mostly just a paragraph per day. Monday July 1st 1968 -got home 1:00 a.m. so written at 2:00 a.m. decided to tell arrangements for July leaving for camp. So unable to keep up diary. Given synopsis when got back so tell  Then in different handwr

          Got up and had the breakfast buffet which was pretty good. It was  very nice buffet with lots of croissants  as well as breakfast yogurt and a variety of other stuff One of the better breakfast buffets.                          Didn't get going to about11:00. We were going to go on drive up and down the Thames. We had difficult with directions. The  traffic was terrible as it was backed up over 25 miles. I made the wrong turn and went down the highway to the southwest rather than to the west. It turned out to be okay because we then cut through backcountry which was relatively nice. A few times I would make a mistake and have to turn around which was a pain in the ass. We were trying to get to pick up the path around Eaton but it'll was getting more and more difficult, and it was hard for the GPS as it was a bunch of change  and it was having difficulty navigating.         So we then cut across country to go to pangbourne which was a nice little town. We then went to
