10/22-11/2 Temperatures dipped that first night and we were glad to have a heater in the tent. The bed would not win any awards for comfort, but we soon grew used to its shortcomings and slept well the balance of our stay. With rain in the forecast we knew that our first full day in […]
10/22-11/2 The drive down from Angels Camp isn’t far from a mileage perspective, but it takes time due to the curvy nature of the roads, particularly a stretch between Moccasin and Priest Station just past the Don Pedro Reservoir (now seriously depleted due to California’s ongoing drought). Starting just east of Moccasin, State Route 120 […]
10/22-11/2 We loaded up the car Monday morning and took off not long after 9am heading due east on the 580 out of the east bay towards Stockton. Our goal for the day was to swing by Angels Camp and Murphy’s, site of my aunt and uncle’s old cabin off Highway 4 before heading on […]
10/22-11/2 Kris had to go into work on Sunday to begin decorating his office for the big Halloween Party they would be holding the following Friday and after he left Jessica, Joanna and I took off for Berkeley and a visit to the REI there to pick up some supplies for mine and Joanna’s trip […]
10/22-11/2 After my return from Copenhagen on the 14th we had a week in town before our scheduled trip out to the west coast to visit Jessica and Kris. Kim and Marty, Kris’ parents, stopped in early the next week for three nights giving us the opportunity to show them a bit of Charlotte. […]
10/5-10/14 Our final day in Copenhagen would be a busy one. We’d watched the weather forecasts carefully and aware that rain was on its way scheduled outdoor activities for Sunday (Boat Tour) and Monday (Cemetery and Christiania) leaving a couple of indoor options for a rainy Tuesday. Once again, Bev and I made our way […]
10/5-10/14 Monday would be another day in Copenhagen with a Simone and Dillon as our tour guides. We took our usual train into Norreport Station, then the number 5 bus into Norrebro to a stop almost directly across from our first visit of the day, Copenhagen’s Assistens Cemetery. We’d intended to look for a […]
10/5-10/14 We arrived back in Copenhagen by early afternoon and bade Simone and Dillon farewell until later that day when we would meet them for dinner back in town. Bev and I took the train back out to Vedbaek and settled in for a relaxing afternoon by ourselves as Maria and Gorm had accompanied the […]
10/5-10/14 Our plans for an early start were sidetracked as we all slept in pretty late, given our post midnight bedtime the night before and the long tiring day that preceded it. Bev’s knock on or door roused Francois and I around 9am and within a short time, we’d showered, dressed and prepared for another […]
10/5-10/14 Maria gave Bev and I a ride to the Vedbaek train station making our trip to the Copenhagen airport simpler than if we’d walked down to the take the bus. Simone and Dillon were to meet us at the airport and while we waited for them there, we each got a bite to eat, […]
