From an amazing 3-week trip to Europe. I went to London (as well as a day in Windsor, Stonehenge, and Bath), Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Odense (Denmark, friend lives there), Copenhagen, and Malmö (Sweden). I loved it! It was amazing! In London, I saw "Spamalot" and "Avenue Q", and now that I look back at it, "Spamalot" is not that anti-Semitic, because the song is not exactly mean-spirited, and "Finland" did not bother me, I do not believe that it is anti-Finnish anymore. And I will not let "Avenue Q" winning the Tony over "Wicked" stop me from thoroughly enjoying it. It was a great show. Still don't like it as much as "Wicked", but it is not just a "show about puppets". Also, in Odense, "Annie Get Your Gun" was playing, but I didn't have time to see it, but I did ask one of the girls from the show (they go throughout the street handing people brochures about the production) to sing a song in Danish and she sang "You Can't Get a Man with a Gun" in Danish, and it was a pretty good translation. If I was in Odense longer, I would have seen it. Anyway, just wanted you to know that I'm back, and I will be posting a lot more frequently.
P.S. in Malmö, I saw a poster for "Avenue Q" in Lund! How cool is that! They're doing a tour of Sweden! Then moving back to Stockholm!!!!!!!!!!!!
