Hello everyone, Just a quick note to let you know everyone (as far
as I know :-) survived the last Bumbling Bruder Tour which traveled
thousands of miles through the United Kingdom, France (two days in
Paris), three trips into Switzerland, Germany (Waldkirch Orgel
Festival, 5 days) Belgium and the Netherlands, visiting more than
36 different collections, museums and even an amusement park, with
the latest steel coasters and yes, three fairground organs. :-))

My hat goes off to Ron Bopp for once again organizing, arranging and
putting up with some 28+ crazy band and fair organ enthusiasts, who
not only came from the USA but also Australia and Canada.

Needless to say it has taken me over a week to catch my breath after
25 days of travel, during one of the most difficult times imaginable,
with not only COVID lockdowns, masks, and airlines who have forgotten
who the customer is.

But only one man could pull this delayed, postponed, rescheduled
(and many, many other unimaginable challenges) trip together and into
actually happening,

_Yes,_ it was a once-in-a-lifetime trip. A big "Thank You, Ron Bopp!"
and yes I'm ready for 2025!

P.S.: I'll be 83 years old and probably one of the youngest on the
next trip. :-))
