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.
