whirling dervish

i'm feeling a bit like a spinning top, but in a good way. just finished a week of work at the frankfurt book fair in germany. while frankfurt is likely my least favorite city in germany, and i was a little bit down on going there specifically, there is still something so invigorating and exciting (to me) about being in europe, and it had been a year since i had been back (to europe or germany. this year i focused my travels on latin america). i took a day trip to cologne, saw one of the most beautiful cathedrals in the world, rented a bike and rode by the rhine and took it all in. i didnt have much free time in frankfurt, it was mostly all about work and the book fair, but i managed to enjoy some of the clear crisp autumn days there.

i'm back in nyc for three days, then heading to barcelona to meet up with my folks for a few days, and have a day or so on my own. then i fly straight to denver for work for the rest of the week, conveniently putting me back in nyc on halloween. i am eager to spend some fall time in new york, and am doing so in november -- friends of mine are renting a lodge upstate that is owned by kate pierson of the b52s that i've always wanted to go to. its a busy time, and i'm enjoying it (well, besides the jetlag part).

i'll try to post from barcelona -- i am planning on falling in love and like a giddy school girl i'm sure i'll want to share.
