[QUOTE="pnomanikon, post: 774895, member: 43342"] Welcome to the forum. Sorry for the slow response. We were stationed in Germany (Ramstein/Kaiserslautern) from 2000-2003 and traveled to 13 countries. Yes - lots of beauty there, but with the current world situation (COVID and politics/civil unrest), it's not the best time now to travel there. I'd love to go spend a month just in Turkey. And another month or two in the Czech Republic and the Balkans. A month exploring Norway and Sweden (only made it there for an overnight work trip). I could go on and on. The train system in Europe is FANTASTIC and we should be ashamed for falling so far behind in public transportation like that. It really is realistic to not own a car in Europe and still get around quite easily. If we do travel to the northwest this year (2022), we may take the historical old 2-lane east-west routes: especially Rt 50, Rt 40 (National Road), Rt 30 (Lincoln Highway), etc. Staying on backroads and exploring small towns and avoiding the national park crowds. I'm in the beginning stages of rebuilding our family website, so I don't have my Europe pages converted yet. Check back in a month or two and I might have some online. Right now, I just have some USA trips finished. [URL="http://michaelelyard.com/family"]Family – Michael Elyard[/URL] Happy New Year, and thanks again for writing. [/QUOTE]
