A handful of my buddies and I flew over to Paris to attend the wedding of two of my favorite people in the whole world. We hung out and partied in Paris before and after the wedding in the rose garden of the Bagatelle, and then we went up to Amsterdam for a while.
After that, we all went our different ways and I began a two-week solo backpacking adventure across Europe with only my wits, good looks, and a 5x7 hardback journal to keep me company. It was one of those adventure-of-a-lifetime deals, greatly enhanced by my little comic book journal.
Anyway, here are some pages from Young Dave's journal.

Way better than Carnet de Voyage.
Bah! Trolls. I delete your silly insults and I give you The Finger.
Any idea on how much longer the hiatus will last? ...and congrads on the "special project."
Glad to see you enjoyed your stay in Holland. As a Dutchman, its always nice to see the stereotypes of my capital city being emphasized... Its all drugs here, baby (though some stereotypes are kinda true...)
Still, what better way of knowing your city is a metropole if even the bums are fluent in English :)
Having been to Holland to visit my girlfriend before I can advise you that it ain't just Amsterdam that's phallic. Holland is the most phallic country I have ever seen. Walking through the hague I saw about 4 sculptures of penii (penises) it's slightly creepy.
I guess the stoned guy from Amsterdam said 'welkom' instead of 'wilkomen'.

Is that what those phallic traffic barriers are called? :)

Or he might be one of those uberpresent German hippies still infesting the city some 35 years after the sixties ended...
If there's no such thing as a small portion in Amsterdam, I'll take a "mary jane" brownie sammich... to go!

This post has a soundtrack:
She said I put you through college
Now go call your dad
And the waitress that he married
Well, she hung up the phone
No she never did like me
But I can stand on my own...
Did that beggar curse you out in English?
You know, the pages you scanned in don't really indicate that you had a good time in Europe. Your wasted, wet, eaten alive, tired, feeling inadequate after looking at giant stone penises, etc. Where are the good parts with hookers and weed at the Van Gogh museum?
Maybe it's out of fashion with the general tone of the commenting (I'm a newbie here) but you're a good artist, Dave. Just thought that I'd mention that if nobody else has.
nightfly you dont know what your talking about. dave cambell’s art sux. whod yuo rather see drawing that stuff, cambell or mcfarlane? mcfarlane would make ammasertdam look totally bad ass. itd be like ammsterdam, but all hellish and shit, and that homeless bum wud turn into a demon and try ot him. and mcfarlane can draw women a lot better two. thered be tons of hot babes everwhere. i hope dave cambell never draws again, betcause he doesnt know the first thing aobout drawing.
Hey! You can't talk about Dave that way!
Dave's art is absolutely stunning...
for a ham-fisted writer.

Dave, it's cool to see you went to Rothenburg. I'm an army brat who lived right down the road from Rothenburg in a town called Ansbach. Rothenburg is probably one of my favorite places on Earth. Did you get to walk the medieval wall or go to the medieval torture equipment museum? Rothenburg is way awesome, but what ratchets it up to supreme awesome status is the fact that back in the day the city was under siege and the commander of the invading army said he would withdraw his troops if someone in Rothenburg could drink him under the table. The mayor, a true stud if I ever heard of one, took the challenge and WON. That's the kind of mayor every city needs. I don't know why more mayors don't use something like that for their campaign slogan: "Vote for John Jones! He'd drink the commander of an enemy army under the table for you!" It'd be a landslide election.
Anonymous, I posted my page about the "masterdraught" that you mentioned. I thought it was an excellent bit of local history/folklore as well. The torture museum in Rothenburg ruled.
"The torture museum in Rothenburg ruled."
I think my wife went there. She was telling me about it while we were watching Baron Blood last night. She also took a trip to Russia shortly after the Soviet Union fell and got into a brawl with some Russian sailors. Personally, I've never been anywhere interesting :)
