Duke’s birthday was last weekend. We are almost always traveling on his birthday so it was fun to be home, and to be able to bake him a cake and have a family party.
We leave Monday on our next big adventure. We will start with a five and a half week road trip through Spain and Portugal, then spend the rest of the trip in Italy and France. If you would like to see a more detailed itinerary, you’ll find a link to the day by day plan in the menu above.
While we are traveling I blog every day. It is fun when friends, family and others follow along on our travels. Please join us.
I started blogging back in 2004 when I was working at Sun Microsystems. It has been a wonderful way to chronicle my life. It is so nice to be able to look back and see what I did when, and where I was. Since I’m trying to use Facebook as little as possible, the blog and BlueSky, @marion-v.bsky.social, will be where I post updates and share my thoughts. My blog post are also cross posted on BlueSky.
We will also be putting videos of our travels up on our YouTube channel @BoomersWithoutBorders. We now have 968 subscribers and 199 videos! That means that in all likelihood on this trip we will reach and pass our goal of 1000 subscribers. I’m very excited. If you haven’t aleady subscribed we would really appreciated it if you subscribed to BoomersWithoutBorders now.
Traveling, blogging and creating a YouTube channel have been wonderful opportunities to be challenged, to learn and to stay young at heart. But I think it’s traveling most of all that is the biggest adventure. So starting Monday the adventure continues. We will be on the road again. I’m so excited!!
