On the road again....Europe

Where the heck has the summer gone?

Ken and I had such big plans for this summer because it was the only summer either of us has had off, we had a list of things we wanted to do a mile long. We got around to some and some we will have to do some other time. The days just don't have enough hours in them. We did some camping, did a few rides around B.C. and the northern U.S., Ken did some riding with the boys and I did some hiking with the girls, we did some sailing, I got my motorbike licence (at last) and we both caught up with friends we were glad to see again.

When we were home, we stayed at my mom and dads place (thank you, thank you, thank you) which was complete with a new mattress (what a treat after some of the taco beds we have slept in on the last trip). No wonder we stayed for the summer! Caution! Just when you think your kids have grown up and left home......do they ever really?

Today we are leaving on the next leg of our adventure. The Central/Eastern countries in Europe. Our plan is to buy a bike in Germany and go from there, visiting a few friends along the way before we head east to new countries we haven't seen yet. We are not quite sure where that is exactly or what it will look like but "Do we ever?". All I know is our bags are packed (60 kilos) and there is a road out there with our name on it!!!

Here we go again.....
