Hey people.

I'm sitting in my hotel room in Amsterdam, getting ready to fly to the Philippines in a few hours.  I'm reflecting on a very successful European tour.  I was in Italy the last few days.  I love Italy.  The people are lovely and there is great shopping, some beautiful scenery and interesting architecture everywhere you look.  But, more than anything, I love the food.  I know I've been getting a little skinnier lately (on purpose, by the way!), but I'm sure I added a few pounds in Italy and I loved every minute of it.  Pasta, pizza, steak, tiramisu, mmmmmmmm...

I met soccer superstar David Beckham at my show in Milan.  He's a fan and he was really cool...

I'm very much looking forward to going to Asia.  My shows are pretty spread out in this part of the tour.  So I have days off to be a tourist.  I'll try to take in some of the sights in South Korea, Japan and China.  I'll keep you posted with updates.

Peace & love,
John
