I have a current US passport, but not current Canadian. Should get on that at some point. (Though really, with the new administration, it feels less urgent.)
I liked Spain a lot more than France overall.
Meh, I'm a HUGE JERK, so I think Paris won't bug me at all.
OTOH, I adored Moscow. My [brusque, cranky] people!

I never needed a passport for Canada driving up when I was a kid, but Dylan is a post 9/11 baby so he's had one since he was 6 months old. He looks nothing like his picture already.

My first US passport was at 15-16. Since they screwed up my date of birth and made me 3 years older, I used it as ID all the time.

I never had any issues on the trains in Europe, FWIW. I haven't been to the UK for almost 2 years, crazy. I went to Paris a few times when I was 19 years old and had a great time, the 2 times I went there by myself. (it was to and from Ireland, took the boat out of France). I didn't have much money and I didn't really speak to anyone, just wandered around and smiled.
I'd like to get back over to Ireland and visit Tom's niece and nephew.
For a while, we were over in the UK so often that we had our own Oyster cards to get around London. There are so many places I'd like to see again, and so many places I would like to see for the first time.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm going to Europe in two weeks from today.
On a first-class ticket.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jamaican passports are issued every ten years. So for the first twenty you spend most of your time looking nothing like your primary ID. It's kinda whack.
OTOH, I adored Moscow. My [brusque, cranky] people!
Dude, that was the biggest culture shock I ever had. I never expected that. Apart from the pointing and the talking and the staring (I accumulated crowds of children and coos of approval from older women) I had one woman in a nightclub sit down on the same stool I was sitting on, despite there being and empty one right next to me. And then she promptly ignored me.
Zoomed briefly through France on the way to Belgium, have no opinion of French that are not Canadian.
Why do people like him EXIST?
Why, and how do they get a public voice. The internet is way too democratic.

He's got a column in a newspaper (Kansas City Star, according to his Bio). Not the internet's fault, this time.

The world is too democratic, then.

What's utterly bizarre is I still have not been to Mexico,
This is me! There are times when I think living in LA is like living in Mexico already, though.
Noah's passport application is in. There was a huge line, including a 4 person Armenian family before us. But our application was filled out on line and was good to go. WOOT.
