Smash,

Kind of off topic but do you plan to visit Europe this year?

Maybe...even though my Dad is gone and there is no reason to go back for distant family in France. My wife wants to go back to Greece. I kinda want to hit the east coast of Greece and go into Croatia and also do the islands there. First we'll be going to Costa Rica where she has a sister.

Are you planning a trip?

Very nice.

We'll probably go back down to Puerto Rico (Dorado) around Christmas time.

My daughter will be a high school senior in 2023 & the school has a trip to Spain scheduled. Momma, Daddy & her brother can't wait to tag along for that one

I'm a big time MotoGP enthusiast so hopefully I'll get a chance to attend one of the races (either Sachsenring or Barcelona) while visiting.

You'll love Spain. Barcelona is real cool. Portugal also. If you all have time to do the French Riviera from Cannes to all the way to Monaco and maybe even a little bit of Italy, it might be worth it, although way more $. I took my wife and granddaughter to Paris/Bordeaux/Barcelona on a two week trip.... $$$

Spain is supposed to be nice. Of course watch out for the rain there…it falls mainly on the plain I’ve heard.

We made it to within 90 km of Spain when we went to France for two weeks. We stayed at a friend's flat in Beziers for eight days and visited Carcassonne. The people were so friendly when they figured out we weren't British. LOL!

Bet you came home speaking with a French accent too, using words like “Carpark” and “University” when telling your friends about your trip. Kind of like the Island Niles episode of Frasier. Douche.
