In April this year, Sandy Mackinnon set off from the Port of Sulina on the Danube in Mirror 47903, painted in the livery of "Jack de Crow". His planned destination: Venice. At first he started a blog which made it easy to follow his progress, but later switched over to Facebook which makes publishing text easier but makes it more difficult to untangle discussions and actual progress reports in a chronological order.
In case some members have not been able to follow the journey, I have tried to list the individual "ports of call" but gave up after Sandy reached the Adriatic. Perhaps one of our members can correct me where I'm wrong and complete the list.
