In September 2000, I was lucky enough to have a great excuse to go to Europe -- two of my best friends and college roommmates who lived in Germany, Brad Best and Nicolas Fuchsius, were getting married (not to each other) within two weeks of each other.  I left on August 31st and returned on September 21st with 43 exposed rolls of film.  This page covers the first week of my trip to Würzburg, Rothenberg, and Hamburg, during which I was able to spend some goodx times with old friends and meet new ones.  My trip continued to Berlin & Prague and ended in Iceland.
