and I've created a photo website (http://picasaweb.google.com/paulspicturesfromabroad) to accompany this blog.
Right now the only thing posted there is some pictures of my trip to NY that I took in February with Erin and Jesus. I believe there are also some skiing photos mixed in. Probably the most interesting photos in the album are the ones at the end of the Durian fruit. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian) The smell was not AS horrible as wikipedia would suggest. However, that said, when we tried to bring some back from NY, its stench started to become overpowering and we had to toss it out in NJ even though we had kept it in the trunk of the car. The texture was custardy and the taste was sort of bland though it had a tangy, oniony aftertaste.

I keep wondering if some NJ garbage collector went "YUCK" when he opened up and dumped out the contents of the trashcan that contained our beloved durian...
ReplyDeleteHaha, I was half thinking that I just of checked the traffic reports to see if they had to shut down any of the rest stop areas in NJ due to unidentified odors.
ReplyDeletelol
ReplyDeletesnoopy left a half drank gallon of milk out for weeks, and finally we decided to toss it. he threw it down teh trash chute, and later in teh day we found that they had to shut down the entire trash system because someone had 'throw real nasty cottage cheese' down the chute!
