Well folks, it's that time again. I'm leaving Sunday, May 20th for another trip to Europe. I'll be gone until September 7th. And that turned out to be pretty good timing. Unbeknown-st to me when I made my reservations, my grandson, Jeff Smith, will be married on September 8th. I'll leave additional details about that to Jeff and his fiance, a lovely young lady, I might add. Good choice, Jeff.
Moving on, the main part of the trip will be in Scandinavia. I'll be there from May 28th until August 25th. Unless, of course, I miss a plane. Then, who knows? I'll first spend time in Vienna and also visit relatives in Austria. At the end of the trip, I'll spend a few days in Madrid and Barcelona before visiting Mi Amigo Bueno, Pepe and his family on the island of Menorca. I've tried to learn a little Spanish, Pepe, but what little I have probably will come out with a Scandinavian accent.
As in the past, I'll send periodic e-mails of my progress. And like the last European trip, I'll also post them on the blog. The address of the blog for this trip is:
dick-scandinavia.blogspot.com
There's a link to the old blog:
dickstrip.blogspot.com
That also links to the new one. Ain't technology great?
And now, it's time to get moving on that practice packing I've been talking about for days now. At least talking to a few of you.
Love,
Dad/Grandpa/Dick

This BLOG covers my travels in Scandinavia in 2007. I'll travel from May 20th to September 7th. Scandinavian countries visited will be, in order, Denmark, Sweden, Finland, Norway, Sweden and back to Denmark. At the beginning, I'll also visit Vienna and relatives in Burgenland. Toward the end, I'll visit Madrid, Barcelona and friends on Menorca. I wanted to take a side trip to St. Petersburg, but Russia makes it too difficult, in my opinion, to get a Visa.
