On Tuesday we headed to Mike's to get ready for Thanksgiving and stopped to see Goodmans on the way. While the ladies cooked the dinner, Elyse, Mike and I headed to the auto repair shop to tow home Elyse's car which died on the road this summer due to a broken timing chain.
Trip Log
November 19, 2018
Left for Pa last Friday and arrived at Jeff's on Saturday afternoon after our usual stay in Lumberton. We had a good trip except for the not unexpected heavy traffic below DC. After a day of rest and football we did some shopping this morning.
November 8, 2018
We are mostly recovered. Grocery shopping done. Golf reservations made . Alesa played water volleyball with her ladies group yesterday while I caught up with finances, prescriptions and the blog. We are both headed out shortly for some volleyball before the Erie Club meeting this evening.
November 5, 2018
Spent a comfortable night at the Ibis hotel near the airport. Had some coffee, checked our packing and caught the very, very, very crowded airport shuttle for a 15 minute ride to the airport. After one short and one very, very long flight we arrived in Orlando on time.
November 4, 2018
Great night's rest and good coffee in the morning. Tets drove us and the dogs out to Bergen by the sea (North Sea) for a walk on the beach. There were a lot of people and dogs on a very wide and beautiful beach. There was a group of guys playing soccer and even a group swimming.
November 3, 2018
Woke at six, packed, had breakfast and headed to the S station and then to the central station. No hiccups this time because we are 'seasoned' travelers and know the ropes (?). A nice comfortable ride to Amsterdam with lots of stops and nice views of the countryside and the cities.
November 2, 2018
After breakfast we took the S-bahn to central station and checked on tomorrow's train to Amsterdam. We bought tickets for the hop-on/hop off bus and went on a 2 hour tour of the major and not so major sights. We were on the top of an open bus and it was comfortable, the weather has been great.
November 1, 2018
Another hearty breakfast, a check of our train and a short walk around this part of Hamburg. We boarded our train but didn't see any car numbers on the outside. We boarded car 2 and our seats were in car 7.
October 31, 2018
Another big breakfast and then off to the train station to catch our train to Hamburg. Rather than taking a local bus we decided to walk to the closest hop on/hop off stop for a ride to the station. They don't start running until 9 but we decided to head out early.
October 30, 2018
Docked in Copenhagen at 10 AM after a good night's sleep and it was cold and rainy. We purchased a hop on/hop off red bus ticket on-line on the ship and had a short walk to one of its stops.
