Not an "I'm Back" thread!

[Breine]

Well, I am back - from my 7 months trip around the world to be exact. Not that I've been away from this place completely, though. The really observant members will have noticed one or two posts by me from time to time (actually, very rarely), but now it's time to return to "full-fledged member mode".
Suddenly being home again is really surreal. It hasn't really occured to me yet I think. I landed yesterday morning, and since then it's kinda been like walking around in a dream world... And, I'm starting work tomorrow! Being back is good, though. I really missed my friends and family and seeing everybody again is gonna be totally crackalackin'.

Anyway, to keep this thread from being closed I'll cleverly make a topic out of this whole thing: What's the most surreal experience you've ever had?

You have to tell me all about it! I haven't been here much either, I actually just started posting for the first time in months this week! Did you see Prague? Munich! Those are my top two for next year!

Didn't go to either of those two, even though I've been to Prague 3 times in the past. It's a lovely city!
Instead I went to China, Nepal, India, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Japan and the US (travelled from San Francisco to New York). All in all a marvelous trip!

Oh man! How did you like NYC?!

'sup dude.

A pretty surreal experience was a good few years ago when (for no reason whatsoever) the POKEMON THEME TUNE was playing in my head, and just as it kicks in and the guy shouts 'POKEMON!', my mate next to me shouts it out at exactly the same time. He said I had been muttering the song under my breath, but I hadn't, and none of my other brosephs heard it either.

I felt like mewtwo

Loved it! NYC is a great city. Me and my travelling partner had 8 days there, and it was brill. Plus, the weather was pretty good (most of the time anyway, it rained really hard one of the days). We saw all the touristy stuff, but also tried to go a bit off-road, although we probably didn't. We e.g. saw three shows on Broadway, visited MoMA and The Metropolitan Museom of Art and I saw Geoffrey Rush! (He's doing a show on Broadway these days? The Exit King I think?).
- wanna go back some day.

Hey , what do you mean 7 months!? You're supposed to do it in 80 days!

My most surreal experience was when Breine came back.

[scrumpleberry]

Joining a certain place as a dessert in disguise was very surreal indeed

Welcome back!

[Caraliz]

Yay!

[Marshall Banana]

Watching the fireworks show at Disneyland for the first time two summers ago and getting a big kiss from Jeremy afterward!

Going to the beach for the first time - with Jeremy - two summers ago!

Drinking chocolate milk boba tea for the first time!

Meeting Jeremy for the first time!

Jeremy telling me - for the first time - that he really likes me!

I feel mushy now.

How much money did that cost you?

How much money did that cost you?

In total (including insurance, flights, treks, spending money and such) it was probably around 13500 Dollars. But you can do it for less than that if you want to.

surreal:
wandering around at midnight, lost in besançon
lots of other times. you might say it's easier to name the times that seem normal!

That's a lot of dollars.
