In the spring of 2008, I found myself quickly approaching a significantly large-numbered birthday, and the following questions arose in my mind:
A) How can I celebrate in a manner appropriate to this milestone occasion?
B) What can I do to have such an amazingly great time that I somehow manage to forget how painfully old I am becoming?
Answer (to both questions): Take a three week trip to Europe, a continent to which I have never been, but have always wanted to visit.
To that end, I made plans to set forth, starting on Saturday, October 11th, 2008, on a whirlwind tour of the continent, hitting six countries in three weeks (albeit a few of them for only one day, or only a portion thereof). I travel alone, by rail. This blog is the story of my journey.
