The Lost Boys
Welcome to our blog! We will be writing about our adventures throughout Europe over the next half year (or longer). In case you read our title and thought "Lost Boys, wtf?" The Lost Boys are Peter Pan's followers who do not want to grow up. In order to stop the process of growing up and avoid responsibilities the Lost Boys escaped to Never Never Land. In our case Europe is our Never Never Land, a place to escape from growing up, from getting jobs, from becoming real people and having a shit ton of fun along the way!

Mark is the bobble head of the infamous Mark Bradford, father of the Bradford family. The Bradford family took me in under their wing while I lived in Indiana and so I thought I would take a piece of the along with me on this trip.

So if you find yourself being a grown up with responsibilities and are bored at work or at home, your escape is only a click away!

Thanks for reading!

First Day In London

We got into London yesterday early morning, at 6:30.  From the airport we took a train to the heart of London, instantly when we stepped off the train we were swept into the crowds embarking on their morning commute.  Londoners only know one speed and that is fast as shit, Jamie and I thought we were walking a good pace only to get lapped by everyone.  You learn pretty quickly to move your ass out of the way because they do not move when walking towards you, bloody bastards.

We hit all the London hot spots yesterday and I think I walked more in one day than I have in the last month.  It was nice seeing all the sights, it still doesn't feel real yet that we are in Europe.  Seeing Big Ben and Parliament from the other side of the river was probably the coolest sight. 

We have yet to see an overweight European which is a refreshing sight and makes watching the "scenery" all that much better.  Last night was well lets just say interesting...we spent the evening in the pub drinking pints of carling with newcastle supporters watching the Fulham v Newcastle match.  Needless to say Newcastle lost and "Fuckin L" might be my new favorite term.

Off to being another damned yank tourist again today, ciao bella!
