Off to Europe
Getting ready to go:
India was such an extraordinary experience, that this time we're going for something a bit more familiar. Paved roads, plenty of English speakers (though in Scotland might be hard to understand), food that doesn't make me scream and breathe fire and break out into a sweat, traffic that moves on a predictable (even when "wrong") side of the road. Temperatures that don't rise above 30 (let alone 40 - we peaked at 45=113 F) Celsius, clouds that are made of water vapor not smoke and fumes.
Another TDA tour - this time from Dublin to Copenhagen - by way of Ireland, Norther Ireland, Scotland, England, France, Belgium, Holland, Germany, and Denmark.
Joined on this tour by our Canadian friends Rich and Louise, and our son Nate, and for the second half of the tour, by Nate's SO - Courtney Buckland.
We expect it to be cool and damp. Sedate. Plenty of coffee shops and pubs, and history, and art, and music. We expect to have relatively few cows, goats, and camels on the roads. Though we may share the roads with sheep in Ireland and Scotland (where they practice safe sex by painting a red "X" on the backs of the sheep that kick).
We'll finish it off with a week in Copenhagen - where we'll be joined by our daughter Patti, her husband Jim, and our granddaughter Emily.
We'll be leaving Boulder on May 28 and I'll try to keep folks who might be interested up to date through Blogger.com.
Here's the route:
