Alternatively, to view the pictures, including the captions, please view the photos on my page at Flickr.com Day 1 When we got to the airport, we pointed out to the United Airlines representative that the connection in Munich was very tight (arrival at 8 a.m. and departure at 8:55 a.m. ) and we knew would have to go through a security checkpoint. We knew that there was another flight about an hour later and we a...

Eleven Days of Summer in Finland (Journal Included)

11 day trip

Arrived in Oslo from various <B>US</B> points (Seattle, Phoenix and New Jersey). We were very very tired, but had promised to look up my friend's mom's friend who lives in Olso. Inga took <B>us</B> out to a lovely lunch and then to Vigeland sculpture park. Then we headed to Frognerseteren for coffee and applecake. YUM! Another bonus--beautiful views of the city. On the way we passed by the Holmenkollen ski jump. Eventually being awake for 29 straight hours caught up with <B>us</B> and we went to bed about 7 pm. In mid-May it barely gets dark in Norway, making it difficult to sleep anyway, but we also discovered th...

Norwegian Coastal Voyage

0 day trip

We're in Paris! First we took a plane from Tampere to Stockholm Arlanda, then we flew to Paris Charles de Gaulle. The airport in Paris was so HUGE! I was very happy that I didn't have to be there alone... We grabbed our backpacks and finally when we found a way out we took a bus to Gare de Lyon. (It was expensive, 12 euros!) It was really warm, 25 degrees celcius. My jeans and fleece jacket were too much! When we were looking for the hostel, my cousin asked a couple if they speak English, but they didn't say a word in English, even though they certainly knew at least a little bit of it. Perhap...

Interrail '06

9 day trip

When we arrived in the city center after transferring from the airport in train & metro, we directly saw the guards heading to the queen's palace of Amalienborg. At noon, we saw guards formal presentation. We then went to our Hotel at the end of the Nyhavn docks. In the afternoon, we decided to walk down Stroget, the main commercial street of Copenhagen. The street is reserved to pedestrians and leads from Nyhavn and Kongens Nytorv to Town Hall (Radhus) and its large place. There is a number of places to admire along the walk, amongst which the nice storks fountain. On sunday, and despite a ba...

May 05, 2007 :: 23:09 --------------------------------------------------------------------- The car and hotel reservations were done on April 15. I went to Italian embassy, New York City on April 24 and passed thro...

Italy

5 day trip

This has been one of the most exciting trips to anitcupate since my travel days started. We have planned every apsect including flight (three of them), hotels (three of them), dinner reservations, attractions, etc on our own. Most of my longer foreign travel has been organized through a larger group or I had a friend living in a country who planned the details so there is no telling how it will. The hardest part of the trip preparation has been, no doubt, the marathon training for Stockholm. Derek and I are lucky enoughto have a friend who is an ultra-athlete map out our entire training schedu...
