So I know I haven't written much about the trip. I will make an effort this week. I am waiting for Roger to post some more pictures on his photo blog, so I can point in that direction at the same time.

One interesting development was in regards to high fructose corn syrup, (which coincidentally [livejournal.com profile] inhumandecency posted about recently as well). Some of you may be aware that I have been suffering from headaches, which for the most part I only noticed if I had had candy or soda beforehand. Since those were pretty much the only places I have significant refined sugar, I sort of just took at as I sign that I should avoid such.

When we were in Hong Kong though, I said to Roger that you think I would learn. It hurts when I have these things. Yet every once in a while it seems like a good idea anyways. When we arrived in Europe he suggested that I try the soda there, since apparently it is sweetened with cane sugar rather than corn syrup. Miracles of miracles, no headaches! I totally overindulged, but it was so novel to be able to have soda without suffering horribly. I am not sure of the reason exactly why my body would respond that way, but at least I know what to avoid now.
