There's probably only one thing more
boring than being forced to watch slides of
someone else's holiday jaunt, and that is
having to listen. to them tell about it, But if
you think that you are going to get away
with only two columns about "-OUR TRIP"
you might as well turn over to the real.
estate ads right now, gentle reader.
Not after I spent all that money. I've had
two long distance calls and a letter in the
past 10 days from. the Chargex people.
Seems we went- over our limit by about
double, and the bills are still Coming in,
Oh, well, that's inflation.
On a trip like ours, it's probably a good
idea to take notes, or keep a diary. I never
do this;,too interested in people and places
to try to put them down.Tried to, keep it all
in my head, in pictures. Result: for 10 days
after we got home I couldn't sleep , with all
those pictures, hopelessly mixed, flashing
through my mind.
When You, hit eight countries in' 14 days,
it's more like low-flying than, an in-depth
:study of the treasures of Europe. But it's
amazing what you can and do see and
experience.
For the average traveller who is not an
art expert, there is serious danger of
picking up a couple of diseases, cathedral-
itis and baSilicatis.. The symptoms are
similar. If -.you see a person with '.head
cricked right back, and 'mouth open, he's
probably just back from Europe.
While the cathedrals are awesome in
their structure and art work, they tend to
make your feel like avery small minnow in a
very large ocean: And 'probably that's -what
they're supposed to do. We were in the
largest and third-largest in the world, in
: Rome and Florence, both designed by
Michelangelo, and I doilt care if I never
see-another`. They make you humble in the
faceOf the patience, the reverence, and the
genius that went into their creation.
And we saw 'a lot of famous works of art:
the Venus de Milo, a stocky broad with no .
arms;' the Mon'aLisa, looking anything but
enigmatic behind six layers of bullet-proof
glass. It was no more thrill than 'looking at
a .good color photo of them -in an art book.
But that's not the sort of thing you
remember from a trip. Youremember the
highlights and. the human relations, the
bad moments and the exalted ones.
Like going , throUgh the Dolomites, a
range of mountains so forbidding they
make the Rockies look genial, • in .a
rainstorm, the driver inching around
hairpin' turns.
Or a magnificent summer evening with
good wine, good .food, good music ; good
friends, on a balcony overlooking the
beautiful Tivoli gardens, outside Rome.
Or wandering around the Mont Martre
in Paris, haunt of famous writers and
artists over the years, watching the
painters at work, haggling over a picture,
maybe having your portrait done in 10
minutes. •
Or being kicked off 'thegrass in Monte

Or sitting on your balcony in Lucerne,
wondering what the poor folks were doing,

mountains,
Or admiring the lady of the streets, who
saw us gawking at her as she leaned
against a building, turned her back, flipped
up her skirt, no pants on, some of the

from Coke to•champagne. All you. had to do
was help yourself, mark down what you'd

see a North American hotel trusting
anyone that much..
Or watching your wife, ,the insomniac at
home, sleeping: on the bus, on the ferrry,
in the boat in the canals of Amsterdam, on
a boat down the Rhine. on the Seine, on the
train. The only place .she didn't sleep was
in thehotel rooms, worrying about getting
up at 6 a.m„ and on the Hovercraft from
France to England, which took only 35
minutes.
Perhaps the best part of a group tour, as
I mentioned, is the relationships you form.
We had Canadians from as far apart as
Dawson City, the Yukon, and Nova Scotia,
the whole breadth of the country.
We . had • Americans from California;
Texas, 'Illinois, Oregon, and Iowa. And we
had five Australians. Have you ever heard
a lady from. Texas trying to talk to a
middle-aged French-Canadian or a young
Australian? It's a riot.
At first we were all a bit stand-offish,
tending to huddle with our own. But after a
feW days we were helping each other with
language, funny money and lost luggage.
The ladies were exchanging travel irons,
hair dryers, recipes, and anecdotes about
toilets.
Ironically, from this land of separatism
and stuff, perhaps the best friends we
made on the tour were Quebecois. And I
think I know why, 1 dusted off my rusty
French and made an effort, and they did
the same with their English.
An Australian lad and his sister became
almost like a son and daughter, to us. A
young Canadian school teacher from
Calgary wept and hugged and kissed when
we bumped into her after the tour, in
London:
`We drank dinner with two handsome
young couples from Illinois several times,
The Ladies Texas invited us down for
Christmas. Donald, from Quebec, wants
me to find a school where his. daughter can
learn English. And I was like to be kissed
and hugged to death by 18-year-old Cathy,
from Oregon. My shirt was all wet with
tears after our farewell party,
