Different Body...Same Brain!

As an assignment in a portrait class was to take a "self-portrait".  I am about to leave on an extended trip throughout France so I thought I would compare myself now to the last time I traveled in Europe.  The right half of the picture was taken on a ferry while crossing the English Channel France to England in 1971.  The left half of the picture was taken within the last year.  I do have the same brain...perhaps a bit slower...but definitely a different body than I did 40 years ago when I hitched throughout Europe!  This time I am trading in my thumb and backpack for a car and roller bag!   But the excitement and anticipation is the same as it was 40 years ago.  I will be blogging the trip on another blog that I am currently setting up. I will let you guys know what it is when I get it finished.  The trip will be June 9th to July 21st.
