Poster’s pau. Must be time to go.
And the checklist’s not looking too bad. I’m excited.
T-10 days to Euro 2014!
With Morocco in the mix, maybe we should call it “Euro+2014.” Anyway, we made one little plan update this past week (staying in Sintra for a night, one less night in Faro). In a nutshell, Euro 2014 is: The Iberian peninsula from Lisbon to Barcelona and from Gibraltar to Andorra Morocco French Basque country (Bayonne, …
Transportation plan is pau!
At 56 days to departure, Euro 2014 is starting to take shape. With the exception of the train between Lisbon and Porto and the bus from Faro in Portugal to Seville, ES, all the transport reservations are done. There’s lots of driving in this year’s plan including Lisbon to Faro, Seville to Gibraltar via Cordoba …
At long last, a little action on Euro 2014!
The planning for Euro 2014 got started a bit later than usual, but we’re also beginning the trip a bit later (end of August). Anyway, this year we’re headed south: Portugal, Spain, Gibraltar, French Basque country, Andorra, Morocco and a pau hana wrap-up in Paris. OK, so Morocco isn’t Europe. I use the “Euro” term …
NAB 2014 – Great fun!
We had a really cool time at NAB2014. It’s been a long time…
T-day is here!
Open items on the checklists are declining; house sitter has been briefed and he’ll be taking us to the airport; flight check-in is done; Zoe’s looking a bit forlorn–she recognizes the signs. Things are looking pretty good. Our inbound aircraft is about to enter Canadian airspace–meaning we should have an aircraft to depart on–and it’s not …
T-1 day and counting!
The countdown clock on the is now blinking a day and change until we’re on our way–pretty exciting. It doesn’t seem all that long ago (mid-January) that we hashing over the macro-level outline. As the graphic says, 9 countries, 7 currencies, etc. As it always does, the time will pass way too quickly, but I can’t …
Finally, something we can touch.
Two weeks and change and we finally have a piece of trip documentation that’s not an e-ticket, email message or credit card bill. Today, our Eurail passes for Sweden and Norway arrived. While it’s nice to have the rail vouchers in our hot little hands, I’ll feel much better when the passports along with visas …
It’s sneaking up on us.
We’re inside of 40 day’s until Euro 2103. A little prep left, but I think we’re in OK shape. As of Friday, the visa apps were in Washington; I’ll feel much better when visas an PPs are back in my hands.
Committed now!
OK. PHX to Hamburg and back are booked. It’s always scary to make that commitment. The trip on the training ship from Kiel to Denmark, Latvia and St. Petersburg are all in the schedule. I think this is getting serious.
