It is so interesting!!! I realized when I was there how different America and the Nederlands actually were. I went to eat in an Italian restaurant, and there was a cat coming out of the kitchen. If that happened in America, the place would be shut down. Smoking cigarettes also was a lot more laid back there. I was able to smoke my cigarette in the airport! In America, you cannot smoke in almost any restaurant, and not within 50 feet of any public entrance.
Norway sounds a lot like America, but here the police kind of rule the streets. They would not let anything happen without them being involved. George Bush is a horrible president, and luckily he can only be in office for four more years. Everything is regulated here, gay marraige has become legal within the last year but only in about 5 out of 50 states and is still sort of a "joke" in the media's eyes. WHen I was in Amsterdam I also saw two men kissing at a tram stop in Leidesplein. I was actually glad to see it, because I feel that your sexual preference should not have to be hid.
I am going to be writing you soon from my e-mail address. You have been so helpful. Thank you again!
