Map of Europe

This map shows at least a portion of the route of our 968 days of driving during nine visits to Europe from 1970 to 1995. We drove an RV 87,000 miles and rental cars 15,000 miles, or more. About 75 to 80 times we “sailed” on a ferry or cruise ship and touched at dozens of ports in 17 countries. We made 15 to 20 short trips on trains, and rode in taxis, subways (in a dozen cities), streetcars and city buses numerous times (more than we can count) and in a tour bus maybe three or four times.
