Yes . . . The famous words of Europe. It is a WEEK 'til we (Katherine and myself) leave for Europe.
Our schedule, or lack ther of, (so far) is to touch ground in Frankfurt on the Morning of September 30th. From there we will discover Frankfurt for another day or so. Then we will head North into Germany. We will visit Tom, a powerkiting friend. He runs a shop in Hamburg. We will meet up with Tom and explore Hamburg and Northern Germany. After that we will continue East South East and check out the "new" eastern Germany and see Berlin and many other sites that I have heard are changing fast and for the better. On September 8th and 9th we will attend a German Kite Ground Boarding event in Dornum, Germany. This is a big highlight of the trip. It just kind of worked out and I am excited to see the European side of the kiteboarding sport.
This will conclude our first Germany experience. From there we plan on going to Amsterdam or continue straight to Paris.
In Paris we will try to get tickets to the preview of the Paris Opera Ballet. This will be an amazing experience. Katherine will love the World known company since she is a ex-ballerina and I will love the technical side of the production. We will also picnic by the Eifel Tower and get plenty to eat at all the patiserries.
After that . . . well we really haven't planned that much else. We will have three months to keep ourselves busy. I am not worried.
Auf Wiedersehen

Hope the flight went well! Have you had your first German beer yet?
How's the wind?
It's just another boring day in paradise here! Hazy & clouds obscure the mountains like most of this summer.
Looking forward to your next post!
Hello my baby brother, I lost my purse on the docks in seattle. The purse containing my phone..my phone in which I was going to use to say goodbye. Found the phone but missed the goodbye. I hope you and Katherine have an amazing time! Keep me posted!
Be careful where you picnic under the Eiffel Tower, my son used to spit off of it :) Add it to your life list of everything you want to do before life is over.
