2009 - A Year in Review

It's hard to believe that in 12 months, we've been to 128 cities in 17 countries. We rang in 2009 watching fireworks over the Acropolis and Parthenon in Athens, Greece and will be ringing in 2010 in Dublin, Ireland.

From Beautiful Budapest to Incredible Italia to Perfect Paris to Magnificent Madrid, we've seen some of the best that Europe (and the world) has to offer.

By the numbers...

3 continents
17 countries
128 cities
151 nights away from home (hotels/rental homes)
61,155 actual miles flown (by me)
17 kilometers (about 10 miles) driven in a single tunnel (in Switzerland)
46 AA batteries my camera 'ate' this year
16,067 kilometers (about 9,983 miles) driven this year
15,000+ digital photos taken

2008 - Year in Review

This is a little late, but I wanted to put in some pictures from Athens. Better late, than never. In early 2008 we were well on our way to Denmark. We were packing up, giving things away, storing stuff, and fitting all our ‘must have possessions’ in a 1 cubic meter box for shipment to DK. We said ‘see ya later’ to old friends and ‘mojn’ to new friends; we started learning new languages; making a list of places to visit while we’re in Europe and checking them off...

Here are the memorable moments from our travels in 2008.
*Note: It might take a few moments to load and it has music.
