Trip of a life time

When Dorothy was an elementary student she saw a picture of a ship sailing down a fjord in Norway.  We all saw the same picture in our geography books.  Dorothy loved that picture and put that on her bucket list.  After thinking about it for 60 years, we said, hell why not.  She spent  6 months plus planning a trip that would allow us to see Scandanavia.

We left Corpus Christi on August 18 th and returned yesterday, September 21, 2014.  We toured Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland.  Wow. it was a trip.  We rode airplanes, ferries, automobiles and trains.

We ate like kings, slept like royalty and walked like a foot soldier.  I lost 17 lbs in the process.  However, my posterior is dragging today like I was 71 years old,  Oh, that is how old I am.

I am going to bore you who read my little blog and I am sorry, but I will try to keep things interesting from the perspective of a person who sees things a shade different from most folks.  I hope I dont get redundent or boring but I will see what I can do.

  1. Look forward to those posts and am glad you are safely home! 18 pounds with all that food you described! That is a lot of walking! I’m still trying to lose the 7 lbs I gained from all the clotted cream and scones I consumed on my trip. You must have horrible jet lag. Nikki

  2. Gary, you are NEVER boring! Glad you and Dorothy are home safe and sound and that you had a wonderful trip! Memories are grand!! Kay
