Flying to Madrid 3. Madrid, Apr. Dear Lau Back again to Madrid, safe and sound. Sangria-drunken, I am looking back on my Spain trip. Madrid will be remembered to me as a city of rain.

On a Greyhound 3. With his head leaning against the window of the running bus, he looked out at the lights of a remote city, saying to himself: Hey, Moon ! You have to throw your hat full of the shells you collected throughout the summer . For what, on earth, the city is Portland that I happened to spend summer twice? No more for the city. Next time will the place be the Time ..

On a Greyhound 2. Leaving Portland, he was thinking of the above poem of Bachmann. And it lingered about in his mouth, at the moment when he was leaving Portland aboard a Greyhound bound for Atlanta 5 days away by bus . And he even mumbled another part of the poem of Bachmann, below, to himself at the moment of, not only passing through the Steel Bridge across the Willamette, ..

On a Greyhound 1. When you leave, you must throw your hat full of shells collected in Summer into the sea, and leave flapping your hairs in the wind. .......... Then Don’t ask when it is that you will to come back. (in German) Wenn einer fortgeht , muss er den Hu mit den Muscheln, die er sommer u''ber gesammelt hat , ins Meer werfen und fahren mit wehendem Haar, ..............

Hostel stay 3.
