germans

ive been meeting many, many germans here in hawaii. im really enjoying them, for some reason, germans are extremely nice as tourists. i remember on my 1st trip to germany, the germans i met in the shops were not to us american tourists, but since then ive met some wonderful germnas. and here in hawaii, every german is wonderful. well, most everybody is happy b/c they are on vacation and/or honeymoon. i love talking to the 'kids' who are on their honeymoons for some strange reason [hummm . . .]. i can pick out the honeymooning couples: the girl is hanging on they guys shoulder, they both have that prue happiness look in their eyes, and they guy is furiously paying with his ring, b/c he's never had one before.

back to the germans - i really enjoy the german visitors [and the australians] but the germans the past days have been very nice. lenard, a swiss friend, had suggested that i tell every german person that i meet: das ist ein volcan [i don't know if i spelled it right, but it says: this is a volcano]. so i tell this to all the german visitors, and they smile SO big - it just makes their day. they even say i have good pronunciation :) i guess that little connection makes me, and them, appreciate each other. i can't help it, i love germans!

so its been 2 months since ive hada hug. do you know how hard that is??? im tempted to, one time, ask some nice german people for a hug.
