Day 1 on the road
























Travel Day 1 is nearly over. It is 12:30 PM Friday 28th here in Amsterdam and 4:30 AM in Waveland. (Been a long day). Schiphol is a huge airport but beautiful. Ya gotta see it to believe it. Nice flights, nice people, and just an all around good day. Are you ready for this? Delta actually served a hot dinner last night and a hot breakfast this morning. Will wonders never cease. Leaving for Riga, my first long stop, in one hour, so better start buttoning things up. Will update when I can. Hope you all enjoy this. Lemme know.

Made it to Riga safe and sound although a little late. Laila and Harry were waiting patiently for me and off to the church for a concert with the oldest pipe organ in Latvia. Wow! Awesome. Then it was to the store, home, and now blogging. Harry was showing me the intricacies of the shower, towel heaters etc. then he pointed out the shampoo for me. LOL.. When he realized what he said, he mentioned that it could also be body shampoo. I’m going to have fun with these folks.
(View these from the bottom up. I will do better next time)
1,2, & 3 are my flights.
4 is a lovely lady oral surgen on the flight to Riga.
5 is the church where we listened to the concert.
6 is Harry & Laila.
Oh well, it’s been about 32 hours since sleep, so we are about to eat and I think I may CRASH. Will continue to update.

Enjoy..

  4. I am really enjoying this. Keep up the wonderful job you are doing. This is a very first one for me, I didn't know people could experience things like this on a computer. If my grandson knew about this he would laugh at me! Muchas gracias!!
