So I walked into town to check out one of the two attractions, the Beaulieu (a museum of art created by the mentally unstable, criminally insane, what have you) and was spellbound for a couple hours. You're not allowed to take pictures but I managed to get a couple videos, its intriguing what the human mind is capable of. From 50 ft painted scrolls, to life-like figures and constructed treehouses with hidden doors (I didn't see the no touching sign, but yeah all the compartments work) - its definitely the coolest museum Ive ever been to.

Its funny how the city center is built directly into a steep hill, so the train station and surrounding shops (and tourist areas) can only be reached by traversing this incline.. You see all the locals stumbling downwards and little kids trudging uphill cheerfully, anyways on this hill I found a shoe store that's liquidating, voila now I have basketball shoes! (Air Force 1s no less, good on style but lacking in the comfort - but if Sheed can, so can I)

So not having done laundary I rocked the new outfit (as pictured) to the open run with D-bo, some pretty decent games there after the initial run-around. We ran fulls for 3 hrs (I'm at 7-3 in international pickup now) then absolutely dead trudged home to get ready for some dorm party. Shared a couple bottles of wine over another carbonara, then another night of getting bombed. Repetitive eh?

I'm out to London from Geneva on the 7th to stay with Josh Jackson and find some work and some digs. If that doesn't work out maybe get hired by some Korean English school and bounce over there, Nick Auld (Cactus) and Hanks Lee (Amsterdam) await.

The Heat should re-sign Tim (Bug) Hardaway just for a shot at the ring, I think.
