Dolomite Trails 2006

Now that was worth getting done wasn't it.

A holiday isn't a holiday if it involves to much effort - I think I would have headed back straight after Italy. I'd have been shattered.

A great read, worth waiting for in my opinion.

Superb Rich

Not sure if there is an award for the best post written but I'd hand it to you now.

Stunnings pics and sounds like a great adventure. Reminds me of the travels I did in my youth which, sadly, more mundane 'grown-up' stuff prevents me from doing now.

Hats off to you!

There is no definition of an adventure. A ride down the shops can be one. Wildbill was planning on Africa. I for one couldnt do that.

If the north south FELT like an adventure, then it WAS an adventure.

Sorry, random philosophy

Superb Rich, really enjoyed reading that and the pics help brng it too life..

much more adventurous than me, I hope to change that in years to come tho, glad you came thru unscathed

Rich-

wot about language barrier-

or are you multi lingual or did the "foreigners" shame us again by all talking english?

I can order a beer in 12 languages

No virtually nothing nearly everyone (europe) speaks english, wants to speak english even if you try, or if doesnt hotel, gas, beer, camping etc are pretty universal . Bit of french or spanish doesnt hurt maybe other places. 'Bier & cerveza' there you go....
Sometimes you cant read road signs. No real bother

Think of how many words you actually use when you go to the shops etc. Very few.

Bah, missed the 'cunning linguist' joke
