Time to check and see if any one else from the Board is scheduled for Goteborg mid-March. We are due for pickup the morning of March 12.
We'll go to London for three nights and to Goteborg on the 11th. After getting the car we plan to stay over one night enroute to Stockholm, and three nights there. We'll return to Goteborg one night, then head north to Oslo for two nights with one night enroute. From Oslo we have the Norway in a Nutshell trip scheduled including two nights in Voss and one in Bergen. From there we go to Oslo for one night, Goteborg for one and then home.
Our XC70 is crystal green, with moonroof (didn't want it, but there was an order mixup), fancy stereo w/o subwoofer, leather/heated seats, load-levelers, trip computer, DSTC. I requested Michelins if possible. The dealer will put on the trailer hitch, mudflaps, and spoiler when the cars has its second greeting back in Oregon. I'm going to take the lockable lugs and install them myself, just as an "insurance." We are also considering taking our Garmin 2610 if I can find a "low cost" disk we can get for the areas we will be in. http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif Otherwise, I'll take a notebook with "MapQuest" routes. http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif
Should be a great trip. Thanks to many who have helped us plan by the feedback you given on your trips. (Yes Kayaking, we will try the the "J" club and hopefully we can get a harborview room at the great rate I got - http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif ).
