We’re counting down the days, and soon the hours. On Thursday, most of us will start our journey to Vienna.
A word is in order about what to expect from the GMC in Europe 2008 blog while we are traveling. My past experience is that people expect too much—and sometimes too little—from this form of communication. An advance word might help with that.
- Our overall goal as members of the Greater Middletown Chorale is to experience and enjoy the tour. This blog in some ways goes along with that goal, but it’s not the reason we’re going. No one is getting paid to write it, and it’s strictly a volunteer activity.
- Updates will happen when and where they can. We expect to have good Internet connections at our hotels, or alternatively at Internet cafes, but sometimes those connections (or our schedules) just don’t work out.
- This blog is not a place to relay messages to travelers. Most of the GMC and friends won’t even see it while we’re in Europe. I’d suggest, as one alternative, looking at the itinerary and sending messages to the hotels.
All of that being said, we will do our best to make this blog a window on our tour experience for friends and family, and we’ll share what we can in words, and in sights and sounds.
