24 days and counting........

About a year ago, my father Rick, announced to the family that he wanted all of us to take a family vacation to Europe. Plans were formed, time-off requests were submitted and joy was in the air. I mean really, who would not be excited about traveling through Europe for three weeks? Then the announcement came: We would be touring Europe in an R.V. A tiny R.V., designed for six tiny Europeans. For those math experts out there, this may strike you as a tad odd, given that there are seven in the Sylvester/Acosta clan.

Given this information, our plans began to change. Can a person survive three weeks with one pair of shoes? Can a 5'10" person sleep in a 4'6" bed? Would we draw straws to see who got strapped to the top of the R.V. when we traveled? How many public restrooms are there in the countryside of Germany?

This blog will narrate our journey, the laughter and the pain. Different members of the clan will be blogging to give you the full gamut of the experience. Come, join us on the adventure as we begin Survivor: Europe.
