Europe: Late Spring/Early Summer

7/28/2018

Adobe gives a sabbatical month after 5 years of service, which I passed a couple of years ago, so I had to use it before I lost it.

I have always wanted to go to Europe, and now that my kids are grown, I was able to go there with my wife.  We flew to London in late May, then went on a 7-day cruise on the Sapphire Princess, which took us to Belgium (Zeebruge and Ghent), Denmark (Copenhagen and Roskilde), Sweden (Helsingborg) and Norway (Oslo)--all of which were amazing.  After the cruise, we stayed in Windsor for 2 days, then in a hotel in Slough for 3, from which we visited London and Oxford.  It was amazing, and physically challenging for this computer-desk-bound geek: nearly every day, we walked for most of the day, and when we weren't walking, the sitting was causing my muscles to lock up.  A small price to pay, in my opinion, for a great opportunity to visit places I had long dreamed about. 

True to form, I am still working through the small mountain of photos that I took.  Here are a few (getting me up to Helsingborg).  I'll have to post more later.  (And I'll post a bunch to Flickr, etc.).
