It has been forever since we have written a post. Sorry everyone, sometimes life gets in the way and we lose a bit of momentum to keep up with the blog. A Quick Recap Since our last post, we left Athens and headed to England, with a quick stop in Valencia to set up a …

24 Hours of Sunlight
Tuesday morning we left Iceland and headed for Svalbard with an overnight stay at the Oslo airport. The flight from Reykjavik to Oslo was thoroughly uneventful and we stayed at an airport hotel, which was also perfectly uninteresting but very convenient. Wednesday morning we boarded our SAS flight to Longyearbyen with a stop in Tromsø, …
It Has Been a Busy Few Days
I know it has been a while since we posted, we left Panama at the end of May and visited family and friends for most of June. Last Thursday, June 26th, we took our leave from Chicago and boarded a flight to Iceland. We are taking 10 days of vacation to see Iceland and Svalbard, …
We Use the Term “Planning” Loosely
We seem to have fallen into a routine in our blogs where we talk about what is happening now or has just happened. I thought I would take time to give you some insights into how we decide to go places, why we pick them and how much effort we (read mostly Sue) spends figuring …
¡Feliz Año Nuevo!

The Stadium Tour Continues
I have been somewhat of a hiatus from the blogosphere. Sue has been doing all the heavy lifting of keeping our blog up to date and all of you informed of our travels. I am deeply grateful that she has been shouldering that burden, but the time has come for me to do some scribbling …
May May Be Our Busiest Month
The month of May is done and boy it has been a busy one. We returned to U.S. on the 27th of April and started with a visit at my mother’s place in Florida. I was lucky enough to bring a cold that turned into bronchitis with me. We arrived while my mother was in …
Our Penultimate and Last Weekends in Valencia
This is our last week in Valencia before we head back to the US for the Summer and Fall.
A weekend in Granada
We are slackers. We haven’t written a blog since New Year's. Sorry. We didn’t do very much the weekend before last. A short – 8 mile – death march to the beach and back, watching American football and generally being lazy. Last weekend we made up for it. We had a three-day weekend because my …
