Default Greece to Normandy Convoy '09

I am organising an Australian and New Zealand convoy to Normandy '09. About 6 weeks from early May to late June 2009.

We will ship 15 WW2 vehicles to Piraeus (Athens) then go by ferry across to do the battlefields in Crete before coming back to the Greek mainland. Up through Greece then across to Brindisi on the heel of Italy before visiting Salerno, Monte Cassino, Rome, Anzio etc.

All the way north to Switzerland, across France to camp with the Brits at Normandy. After the 65th celebrations we travel north through the WW1 battlefields (visiting the Australian, New Zealand and Canadian National Memorials) then ship our vehicles home to Aus/NZ from Zeebrugge or Rotterdam.

We have 7 signed up already so will have our full quota well before departure. Anyone wanting to come get in touch - we will talk to any other nationality who might like to join us in Athens for the journey (would love some Greek vehicles).

This is not a commercial profit-making operation but an enthusiast's convoy we are leading for the fun of it. Only charge is $AU500 contribution to help cover the hundreds of hours and dollars expended on organisation before departure. All other expenses are from the entrants direct to the service providers (organised and coordinated by us). Mostly camping. To see what else we have done look at the web site www.next-horizon.org
