Roadtrip!
« on: July 27, 2009, 04:57:08 PM »
The wife and I are about to set off for Europe in the van, Excited does not cut it.

I have done all I can to prepare the old girl for the trip, and worked on the van a bit too ;D

We are staying just outside Dover tonight and then catching the early ferry to Dunkerque in the morning. We plan to visit Belgium, Luxembourg, and then head to Switzerland round lake constance then through the Alps to France and up toward the Atlantic coast and Brittany to visit my parents (who live in Brittany)

3 weeks and 3000+ miles!!

Pics and Vid when we return.

Wish us luck. ;D ;D ;D
