Spring/Summer 2026 Back across the pond

And, we’re back in the saddle! If anyone is out there still getting alerts from this page, we’re going to give it a go to post a little about our 2026 Italy/England/Wales/Ireland/France trip. We’re approaching it more as our photo album/diary, but if others are interested, all the better. 

We’ll see how it goes—since we haven’t posted about many many trips hiked or biked the last decade. 

To catch up to when we got in our bikes: we flew to Italy for a combined trip to visit one of my (Alaine) Bavarian cousins, Sigrid, and her Karl at this hime-in-progress in Anduins, Italy. We started out first in Trieste for a couple days to settle into the new tune zone and explore the city a little.
