Copenhagen – Visit #1

A walk in Copenhagen. We arrived around noon after a three hour delayed flight from Toronto. Checked our bags at the hotel by the airport and took the train downtown. We walked by Tivoli, the fairgrounds, through the up-and-coming meat processing area, and over to the lovely Nyhavn block. We’ll get a better idea of Copenhagen next week.

AND – I’ll get better with the 360 camera and its editing software. I promise!! While watching, pan around to see what’s going on all around us.

It’s a 360 video. Start the video and pan around by dragging your mouse.

Europe Travel – Spring 2024

PattiAndJohn Europe Travel – Spring 2024

This trip takes us from the Arctic Circle in Norway to Lisbon in sunny and warm Portugal. John will leave two weeks before Patti and join two friends for train travel around Europe.

Then Patti meets John in Paris, rides a train to Bordeaux, and PattiAndJohn head out on a month-long cycling trip to Lisbon.

Here is the cycling route using the great planning app ‘Ride With GPS‘. Each day will feature an 80km ride. Our trikes are made in England by ICE Trikes. They feature full suspension, hub brakes, battery electric assist, and automatic variable speed drive. We travel light with everything in two panniers each. We don’t camp, though! Comfortable small B&Bs or hotels.

For planning, in the RideWithGPS app we set overall start and finish points and let the app select a cycling route, staying off busy roads and unsuitasble trails. The we zoom in on the route and find places to stay about 80kms apart using travel sites like expedia. In very rural areas this can be a challenge.


First Post – Just testing a few things.

I’ll be shooting video around Europe with the 360 camera. Hopefully I’ll be posting videos, pictures and observations each day.

Here’s Patti with her beautiful ICE recumbent trike, and John’s train route from Norway through Denmark, Poland, Slovakia, Austria, Switzerland, Germany and France.
