In 2012, my dad (#Bob Tullmann) propsed a long distance hiking trip across European Alpines. The trail he mentioned was called the E5: "from the French Atlantic coast in Brittany through Switzerland,Austria and Germany over the Alps to Verona in Italy. It is waymarked over the whole 3200 km (1988 mi) distance." (Wikipedia) We wouldn't travel the full distance, but travel sections of it over the period of 35 days. Since 2012, I've thought about it, prayed about it, and started preparing for it. Yesterday, Saturday, April 27, 2013, I purchased 2 airline tickets to Geneva, Switzerland. The journey has begun...

Looking forward to this trip of a lifetime! Just about a month to go! Just ordered my sleeping bag liner (fleece), and a travel pillow by Tempurpedic, similar to the one on my bed right now,only smaller. My pack and sticks are on their way, and I am wondering about a stove and cookset, to keep some meal costs lower. My German courses are over, and I'm learning French- wow, what a difficult language!I'm still running every day, up and down our Virginia hills.
Awesome dad! Keep it up! I've also been wondering about a stove and pot. I just updated my supply list and have everything ready. I'm on lesson 2 in German and need to put t on my iPhone.
