Out of here Part 2- Out of France
So I am leaving this place on the Sunday the 16th of May. Had a good time. Only regret, should have participated more actively in university life. But I travelled a lot, experienced a lot of things western and basically figured how life is going to be in the US, so I guess it was worth it- maybe it will help me get used to life in the US faster. Kind of look forward to going back- Indian food, no one speaking French (very important !) and the people in India. No idea of the 'reverse culture shock' that I might experience though.Its going to be a bit weird for the first few days.

Hamburg, Lubeck,Amsterdam
Trip Start- Night of Friday, 30th May
Trip End- Morning of Tuesday, 4th May
Good to Great Trip.Lot of Spring Festivals going on. Music, beer and nice food. Tried out the German specialities- Thuringer and Krakauer. Basically roasted sausages but very nice. Went to Lubeck. Nice relaxed city. Just walked around and took it in. Not many tourists.
In Amsterdam I feel there is nothing more to do ( apart from drugs that us ;) especially if you have been to other major European cities as the churches and attractions are nowhere near Paris or Florence or Rome) than go to the Van Gogh and Rijk Musuems.Saw all the world famous paintings- Sunflowers, Potato Eaters by Van Gogh and Night Watchers by Rembrandt.Also relaxed- took a nice nap in the park and lazed around.
