Itinerary for next 2 weeks

Some folks have asked us for the itinerary for the next couple weeks. No moss under the feet of Team Glavin in Europe. Tomorrow Sunday Aug 9 we head to Poland. Our first stop is Krakow where we will visit the castles and Churches and take a day trip to Auschwitz on Tuesday. We will head out by train to Warsaw and visit the home of the labor solidarity movement of Lech Walesa and the successful effort to overthrow communism. We leave Warsaw by train on Thursday and head to Gdansk and the shipyards of the Baltic Sea. We take a Polish Ferry across the Baltic Sea for Stockholm, Sweden arriving Saturday afternoon after a 19 hour ferry ride. We have a sleeper cabin lest you are afraid we will be on the deck of the ferry all night freezing our American keesters off!! We spend a few days in Stockholm to get a feel for the city that we are sure to revisit when the Nobel Prize is awarded to some Glavin in the future, economics, literature, Peace who knows???? We leave Sweden after 3 days and fly to Berlin Arriving Tuesday. We will finish up Colleen's vacation in Berlin with 2 days of World Track Championship fun. We hope to see a World Record in some event so Pearse can update his report on track world records. Once Collen departs :( we head out to Innsbruck and then onto Bolzano Italy to look for housing for ski season :-) Then it is back to Vienna for a bit of rest before we visit Hungry and Russia in Sept.

Carpe Diem
