Hi Tony

If you would like to be there in 2014 with your restored Blitz, then check out details below. Lang is organising another trip accross Europe to end up on the beaches on D Day. He has a thread going under. "Istanbul to Normandy Convoy - 2014".

Istanbul to Normandy Convoy - 2014

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Istanbul to Normandy Convoy is on again for 2014. We already have a pretty full complement of Aussies and Kiwis and will soon be starting a waiting list but I would hold a few places for Canadians and/or Americans to come along just for the cultural mix.

6 weeks, departing Istanbul 01 May 14 and ending on the WW1 battlefields in Belgium 12 Jun 14. Really interesting route this time via Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Albania, Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, France, UK (Jersey Island), France, Belgium. About 6,000km so very easy driving.

Camping at mostly first class facility camp grounds.

You can see the DVD of the last trip - just Google "Driving to D-Day" and you will find a distributor to supply one. I think some of it is on You Tube. You can also go on our web site to read the blogs, photos etc www.next-horizon.org

Take the opportunity to bring your vehicle over (direct shipping from North America to Istanbul is available) or buy something in Europe to take home.

ps We will be visiting Vimy and the USA National WW1 memorial.
