Good to be back
Been traveling a lot lately which is why I haven't been around here much. I just got back from 2 weeks in Europe, hitting London, Vienna, Munich, Grenoble and Paris. I feel like the Griswolds in European Vacation... :rolleyes:

No quality sightseeing unfortunately. I wish I would have had more time in Grenoble - it's an amazing setting near the Alps and a great place to work for a few days. I had one night in Paris, but was sick as a dog. Vienna was beautiful and two nights there over a weekend wasn't nearly enough to fully appreciate it.

I stink at tourist photos, so all you get is the standard Eiffel Tower shot. :razz:

After half a dozen flights - including a 10-hr nightmare stuck in a middle seat directly in front of an unhappy 2-yr old - a couple of long train/bus rides while sick, the ridiculous inefficiency of air travel in europe and continuously mixing up my euros and GBPs, it's good to be home!

One night in Paris? I think I saw that for sale on the Internet. :biggrin: Welcome back to familiar surroundings, buddy.

Welcome back to the comforts of home and the warm days and cool nights of early summer in Colorado. :smile:

Welcome back Rick. Traveling for work and traveling for vacation just aren't the same, are they? Here's to a Fat Tire and a view of the Rockies. :toast:

Rick,

I know the feeling. Glad I'm not doing the same type of travel anymore.
