Denver to Japan - 2012


Welcome to our place ...

... where we will plan our trip from Denver to Japan in 2012!

Introduction

These webpages are for everyone involved in our adventure to connect: find out about each other, follow the progress as we put together the itinerary, let your needs be known.

 

In the box at left are links for you to find out about who else is taking this trip, some information about each of the cities we plan to visit, people who are helping this happen (travel agents, contacts in our destination cities and so on), and events going on that you might be interested in because they provide opportunities to prepare and learn for this journey. Also, we will provide details on our itinerary and prices as they become available.

 

 

Discussions

We think it's important to have a place where the group can hold discussions and post questions and answers. The primary tools for this today are Wikis and blogs. But these usually require you to establish a userid and password, which seems unneccessary to me.

As an alternative, I decided to simply go with web pages to hold discussions. If you follow the link in the box on the left to Discussions, you will get a simple explanation of how this can be used to answer questions you have and to share your own insights and experience with the group. Please feel free to contribute to any ongoing discussion or to start your own.
