Pictures 'en route'

When taking pictures the C702 tags the pictures with GPS coordinates, allowing me to put them on Google Maps. So for a visual track of our route, click the image below.

Thanks for all the help, support and good memories!

I'll write most of this one in English, so all the people we met abroad have a chance to read it as well.

I'm glad we made it to Rome, as there were times I thought the adventure we picked might be a bit bigger then we could handle. Luckily, through perseverance, but more important with the support of all the kind people we met, we made it to Rome on two little Puch Maxi's and a Piaggio scooter.

So here's a list of people and companies (in chronological order) I'd like to thank. If there's anyone I missed I apologize for that; it's been crazy weeks and I might skipped over something unintentionally.

SonyEricsson for donating the C702 telephone that allowed me to keep this blog updated, no matter where I was. It's proven a great phone for me.
Jarno's Puch Shop voor hun adviezen en geduld.
West Wielers Scooters voor al het werk en de enorme inzet van iedereen en Bert in het bijzonder.
Camping Maaszicht in Kerkdriel en Tiesje voor het feest in de bar en de overnachting op de camping. Met een Puch Maxi in de bar staan is een onvergetelijke actie. :)
Shell station Kerkdriel voor de hartelijke ontvangst, de koffie en de donatie voor Privaserve's werk in Zambia.
Camping Marisheem in Echt voor alle hulp om een vervangende scooter te vinden.
Smokey's Bike Shop in Brunssum voor de Piaggio en alle ombouw hulp zodat we weer verder konden.
Familie Plattner in Dalaas for helping us fixing one of the Puch's and making us feel at home. A great home to stay!
Imerio for getting us out of Trento.
Michele for being our Guardian Angel in the Bologna area and a really great Crescentini (aka Tigelle or Gnocco Fritto) lunch.
Camping Smeraldo in Trevignano, voor de lokale, Nederlandse support en het leveren van de perfecte uitvalsbasis voor het bezoeken van Rome en omgeving.
Soetens fietsvervoer voor het terugbrengen van onze brommers.

All others who pointed us in the right direction, escorted our ways through the cities, put their thumbs up or made us feel good in any other way.

The sponsors, in particular Adjust Consulting and friends and families for donating to Privaserve Foundation.

For me personally I would like to thank Georg in particular for filming us all the way and his never ending enthousiasm during the trip. Thanks!

Finally I want to thank all of you who read my blog, I enjoyed keeping it up to date. It was also a good way to capture everything we encountered, the sites, the people, the emotions, the lot.... Reading through it, it makes me realize what we went through and I now understand why I'm still sleepy. ;-)

Thank you all,
Frank
