Definitely next time Clemens! Was a shame to have missed you this time!

Brussels is a very cool city.

Jarrod,

Any chance you will come over Gothenburg, Sweden, on your journey?

Hi Anders,

Sorry for the slow reply but wifi has been useless for the last few weeks. Not this trip but we intend to return to Sweden so maybe next time.

A few more pics now we have decent wifi!

View from our apartment in Brussels.

I love beer. I especially love Belgian beer!

Our apartment was about 300 metres the Grand Place. Afternoon jet streams.

Brussels is a great city. Loved it.

Our cruise ship, the Celebrity Silhouette is basically a floating city.

Warnemunde was the first cruise stop. Cool little port town.

I just say: Awesome pics, very cool!

Awesome trip, awesome collection, awesome pictures!
Very nice Jarrod and Steff!
Hope to meet you later this year!

Thanks Chris/Tilo.

You definitely will see us Tilo, we should be back your way sometime in September. Fingers crossed.

One of the best things about this forum and travelling is that you get to meet some great people all over the planet. Giovanni was nice enough to meet us in Düsseldorf and show us around.

Jarrod, keep me posted when your back in September, although it is my busy time, I would love to catch up with you guys again.

Cheers Chris

After having to return to NZ for some unforeseen circumstances, we are back on the road! Just made it to Toronto. Pretty happy to be here.

This pic was from our hotel room in LA. Great room number...
