I am in Holland doing research and visiting family. So far I have found a good software package that can help determine trip routing in Europe. It has mapping and GPS capabilities and routes can be downloaded to a Pocket PC. This will enable me to make a sensible cycling program. I am hoping to purchase that whilst here - E.70 is probably cheaper then maps and books and easier to carry too!

I have found a ** Cycling along the Austrian Danube ** book, which I purchased, and a Hungarian map. Of course I have been cycling here in Holland too!

Tonight I am giving my first speech! My unlce arranged for me to speak to the local Rotary Club here in Bloemendaal, Holland. Wish me luck!

Less than a year to go!
