Thank you very much for the wonderful compliment – I’m blushing!

I had first heard about the Green Book on a podcast called 99% Invisible. It’s so important to look beyond the general narratives we are fed about the places we visit, and I’m slowly learning to consider the way minority communities experience and interpret different historical events.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read our blog, and especially for dropping us a note! Please do stay in touch!

We went a little camera-crazy during this road trip – over 1,000 photos!!

I actually specifically thought of you and Leonie when I gave the advice at the end about my favourite section of the route being Illinois. I could totally see the two of you doing Chicago-St. Louis as a road trip next summer. What do you think??

I should have know you would watch it… It actually made me nauseous, and I stopped after about a minute or so.

I actually watched Molly’s video (fast-forwarding in certain areas) but she ate three 72oz. steaks, each with a roll, baked potato and salad plus lots of water to wash it down, in 20 minutes!!! Unbelievable…
Thought Bruno might like to try it???

I really loved this 2-part installment. So interesting and who knew it would be? I am as pleasantly surprised as you likely were. As always the photos are a great addition.

Enough of Route 66 eh! O well, when you get to Tucson, try biking up Mount Lemmon.. That will get rid of all the biscuits and gravy.
Have a Merry Christmas and wishing you safe travels

By chance last week there was a programme on the BBC radio 4 about the “The Green Book”…very illuminating, disturbing and a bit chilling about not so distant American history.

You are a pretty amazing couple…thanks for sharing your travels and especially your feelings and interpretations of what you come across. Your writing style is wonderfully straightforward, smooth kind and warm hearted.

Thank you.
