Hi - Im back in the UK. I had a great time in Spain and I the people I met there were very friendly. I think Spain is a very tourist friendly place to go. Im in Portsmouth tonight after being threatened by the border patrol to be sent back to Spain, but Im getting used to that now. Almost every time Ive crossed a border Ive been threatened now. This time it was because I asked why I was being interegated about what I was going to do when I got back. I was trying to be friendly, but they really dont like Americans. I think there is still alot of classism in peoples minds these days unfortunitly. The border man said "have you tried getting into America lately?" Its another thing wars create: anomosity. It shouldn't be about where you were born anymore than about what color your skin is. Unfortunitly, we're still not there yet even if we think we are. Its another oppurtunity to practice that forgiveness that the only hope for the future. I just hope that other people start to practice it too, because It only works if everyone does it. Well that said Im excited to be going to Wales tomorow to the Eistoffodd. Ill be going back to Llangollen where my mothers family name Yale come from.
The i'm Talkaton. Can 30-days of conversation change the world? Find out now.
