Reflections on Scandimonium
Boy did we have ourselves some fun over the course of our 12 days in Northern Europe. From camera-shy prostitutes to 4am Happy Hours to claustrophobic boat cabins, we made enough memories to last a lifetime. Traveling with my brother- and sister-in-law could not have been more fun. It was neat to see all things European through their virgin eyes. Sometimes a seasoned traveler can forget the little things - like how its a little odd that all the chairs at an outdoor cafe point in the exact same position (better for people watching obviously) or that when you order soda do not expect ice (or a large portion for that matter - you’re getting 100mL in a little curvy glass bottle).
To be honest, at first I wasn’t that excited for Scandimonium since I had already visited so many other Western European countries - but from the moment we left it was an adventure and a pleasure. I am so glad that we all took this trip together because it was incredible at every turn and gave us stories that we can share forever.
