Back in the USA

My friend Kevin, a frequent commenter on the site, has just returned from several weeks in Honduras, where he has family. As usual, he had a good time, and we were amazed when he told us that he didn’t speak a word of English the whole time (being fluent in Spanish and all).

As you may (not) recall, my sister and I were invited to come along, but the parents, who didn’t like the idea, put off their decision until it was too late for us to get passports. (“What?” exclaimed Kevin, world traveler. “You don’t have passports?!”)

Anyway, he said he had a good time and that our invitation was still good for their trip next year. Hopefully by then we’ll be able and allowed to go. And I actually wasn’t too keen on going this summer because I have homework for AP European History. I’m about 80% through with it, but summer vacation is also almost over.

Well, tomorrow I’m going to do some traveling myself. But fear not: the blogging shall not cease… much.

Random live webcams from the Net! Apparently you can use Google to find these — some are webcams, and others appear to be security cameras. Here’s one in a computer lab at Florida State University. And here’s a chicken coop in the UK. If you find any good ones, post a comment.
