Getting Lost #6

I shall call this more of a blogett, rather than a blog. Let's keep it short and sweet. Okay - so I am in Enschede on the weekends (my country home) and today my sister and I walked to the beautiful park. It's full of tall trees, ponds, animals, and many different trails. It was so beautiful, that I decided to go back there on my bike an hour later. I was mesmerized by how peaceful it was, so I stopped to watch the little ducklings and pet the pony, etc. I could hear that morning song they always play in cartoons when the sun is rising and everything is jolly. Yeah, you know the one. I kept riding and riding for about an hour, taking different trails until I reached a highway - wait, what? Yeah, I was lost with no map. I asked a girl where we were, and it turned out that somehow I ended up in the next city, so I rode on the bike path next to the highway for a LONG time trying to get back to Enschede (Paul B., you would have been proud...) Needless to say, I will be investing in some padded shorts. Yeeowzah!

I was afraid that because of the red font that your "getting lost" resulted in some kind of terrible bloody mess (even though I've already talked to you before reading it and know that you made it out alive :-). Anyway, yes I do know the morning song of which you speak and it's from Peer Gynt by Grieg, in case you weren't sure. Love ya. Th

Padded shorts, eh? :^) They make your butt look big... (OK, not YOUR butt, but...)

I can certainly understand the reasons behind you getting lost, it sounds like a GREAT place to wander -- when can we visit????
