European Vacation
June 2001
In June of 2001, we set out to
visit Laura in London and decided to see a little of England and
Europe on the way. We left Cleveland on 28 May 2001 on our way to
Atlanta, Europe and England. We returned home on 15 June 2001. In
between, we visited eight countries and drove around 3600 km (2250
miles).
Those who are not faint of heart
and thrive on minute detail are welcome to read our travelog (in MS Word
format). It does have some more pictures and links to tourist
sites and other sites of interest.
