Travelin’ Trio in Scandinavia 2024

 On May 30, 2024, the Travelin’ Trio went on a Rick Steves Tour of Scandinavia. The tour finished June 15, 2024. In late October, we gathered in San Antonio to create the photo book.

Travelin’ Trio Tours Central Europe

With airfare being so expensive and with two of the three Trio members being retired and having spare time on their hands, the Trio decided to make the most of their time in Europe and did back-to-back Rick Steves tours. The Scandinavia tour ended the morning of June 15 and a tour of Central Europe didn’t start until June 16, so we flew from Amsterdam to Prague and had some amazing adventures in Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary, Croatia, and Slovenia. Wow. What a trip. I think this is the most pages in a photo book yet.

We waited a bit longer than usual to make our photo book and then we couldn’t decide whether to make one book or two. We met in October 2024 in San Antonio, but only got the Scandinavia book done. We met in January 2025 in San Diego, but our hosts (and fellow Rick Steves travelers) Bill and Diane joined us and we enjoyed their company and their city instead of working on the book. So eleven months after the trip, we finally found a weekend that fit all of our schedules, rented an AirBnB in Denver, reserved the best Uber driver in town (Rodney), and got most of the book done. But again, we got distracted as we also spent time planning our next Rick Steves tour with another set of fellow Rick Steves travelers, Stan and Lisa. With only a few days before the one-year anniversary of this amazing 2024 Central Europe trip, we finally got ‘er done!
