Hi John,
I've been trying to post this on the Samstone site and I guess it is too long.  I've already edited it so much.  I can't anymore.  It was such an intense experience.  I may have already edited out the understanding of it…..Maybe you can get it on there for me.
 
Europe was so amazing.  I can't even begin to tell you how much I loved it.  The people have such passion…for the outdoors, music, art, food, each other…sop much more depth to life.  I think the trip really altered my outlook on life, altered me!  I can really understand how you love to travel and hope to make it happen more in my and my families life.  Lets have dinner and share travel stories!  I would listen to travel talk forever!  I'm getting my pictures together and then you all should come over!  Hugs to you and Diane, Love Amy

Of all the places I left a Samstone on my Europe trip, this one was the most intense , just crackeling with energy.  I was in Nurnberg, Germany.  I came to a commemoration of the U.N. Declaration of Human Rights. The white arch shows the date of the declaration. Each of the white pillars represent a different statement in the declaration. These felt really good, but had no place in which to tuck a Samstone. Nearby was a statue under some trees. The statue was a teenage boy with wings. The amount of energy I felt when I saw it brought tears to my eyes. What Sam is was rushing all around. Of course the perfect little ledge was there to place the stone. I knelt down to take the picture toward the sky. There he was with angel wings soaring through the clouds!   I also placed a stone among some vines on one of the trees by the statue.
