Our most recent trip was to England (again) on January 22-30, 2012. The travelogue is coming soon.
We took a trip to Italy, October 2-12, 2011. We spent several days in Rome at St. Peter's, the Vatican Museum, and antiquities. Them we moved to Florence for several more days of museum hopping and soaking in the environment, with a day trip to Venice
In May 2011 we took our niece to Germany, as an introduction to international travel, since she hoped to spend a semester abroad there. We had fun, too, and include a furniture tour of the Goethe Museum in Frankfurt, and a page on driving the Autobahn (at well over 100 mph).
In October 2010, we took a drive around Scotland, to be sure they were making enough Scotch Whisky to last another 40 years, documented with pictures.
Since my father was born in Riga Latvia, and "Plesums" is a very distinctive Latvian name, our vacation to Riga in September 2009, was documented with more than the usual amount of history, and more than the usual number of pictures. Hope you enjoy it.
Our vacation to Budapest in October 2007, was one of the best recent trips - high on our recommended list.
We went to Singapore in September 2005. Just a teaser of a travelogue, but a few pictures and notes. Great trip but it is sure far away! And maybe someday I will add more pictures.
A travelogue from our first non-business trip together, to England, in February 2002
We had a great business (and pleasure) trip to Wollongong and Sydney Australia in 2001
Not all of our trips work out as well. We had a good time - but the logistics arranged by American Airlines Vacations were terrible. We won't use AA Vacations again.
