What does Europe hold for an 'Ameripean' visiting in the age of George W. Bush? Find out as Steve Shultz takes a 3-week sojourn through the heart of Europe in June 2005. Follow him to England, France, Denmark, Sweden, Hungary and Holland -- in search of old friends, Danish host relatives, tennis glory...and more. Special thanks to min kaerste (sweetheart) Junior for the awesome camera these pictures were taken with. For pics from other stops on the sojourn, see "Archives" in the right column.

In England, if somebody tells you, "Quick sticks!" it means "Hurry up!" Classical music holds its own against pop, rap and hip-hop in Europe, with posters for concerts featuring music by Beethoven, Bartok, Brahms and more as common in some areas as posters for concerts by the likes of 50 Cent, the Game, Green Day, etc. Paris has an openly gay mayor who is very popular. Denmark almost ceased to exist as an independent nation in the 1600's, when Swedish warships nearly wiped out the Danish navy off the coast of Copenhagen. At the last minute, Holland sent 50 warships to Denmark's rescue. The Dutch ships broke through the Swedish lines and drove the Swedes back. The Danish nation survived, and today it is the oldest kindom in the world. In Budapest, on the shores of the Danube River, stands an ugly white building where Hungarians suspected of being anti-communist were taken during the country's years under Soviet domination. In the basement, prisoners were killed and their bodies deposited into the Danube River through special tunnels.
