[Artemisia] Re: OT: Europe anyone?

[Melody Kalkowski aka Jadwiga]

I've been hoping to hit up Poland (which seems to have remained SCA free) but would also like to see France and other countries.
   
  The question is, if I wanted to fight, how hard would it be to get my heavy gear over there? I mean, sure a thirty-some inch round shield fits in the over head compartment but the cost of checking an extra bag due to weight can be rather high. Then there's the carting of it around europe...

  Hi everyone,
 
This is my first posting to the list in a long time, since before it 
moved  
from yahoo so here goes.
 
Been talking with a few people lately who would like to go (or go back 
) to  
Europe.  I myself am planning to go sometime in 2007 (late  spring?)  
It of 
course will be 80% medieval (castles cathedrals and  battlefields). I'm 
thinking 
at least two weeks, my interests are England, France  and Wales.  But 
nothing 
is concrete yet.
 
Does anybody have similar ideas?  I don't know if airlines still offer  
group 
rates but if enough people are interested, maybe we can go as a group 
(at  
least for the airfare)  then people can split up to see what they want 
once  we 
are over there.
 
Any takers?
Lets see if we can get a dialog going about this, if we could get a  
group 
over there at one time it could be a lot of fun. 
 
I've been looking at some of the SCA group web pages  from Drachenwaldt 
and 
would like to time the trip to coincide with an event  at a real castle 
(which 
seems to happen frequently)!
 
Anyone interested?
