In 50 days, Caleb and I traveled more than 5,000km across Europe, through 13 countries, and we walked a total of 787,297 steps - that's an average of 15,746 steps a day.
We didn't have a set itinerary for the 50 days, and booked our bus/train tickets and accommodation on the fly.
Caleb made a beautiful photo and video collage of the trip to The Beatles' song "I'll Follow the Sun".
The song has such simple lyrics, but they mean so much. Watch this video with the music on.
"One day you'll look to see I've gone
For tomorrow may rain, so I'll follow the sun
Some day you'll know I was the one
But tomorrow may rain, so
I'll follow the sun
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go
And though I lose a friend
In the end you'll know
Oooh
One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow may rain, so
I'll follow the sun
Yes, tomorrow may rain, so
I'll follow the sun
And now the time has come
And so my love I must go
And though I lose a friend
In the end you'll know
Oooh
One day you'll find that I have gone
But tomorrow may rain, so
I'll follow the sun"
No matter where I go, I wake up every morning missing Joshua so very much, and wishing he's here with us. Caleb and I managed to get through the trip without Joshua - now, the question is, how do I get through my life without him?
Always loved, never forgotten, forever missed.

Maybe we should have seen this coming when the brand effectively did this same exercise with the Aliminium line some years back, but expectations notwithstanding, I am glad this watch has been brought back. Watches are reaching a younger audience now at a more rapid pace than they ever have, and I think this is the sort of link model link that link can really connect with a large swathe of enthusiasts or potential enthusiasts.
Last week, the blacked-out and very British Bremont x Bamford Aurora Supermarine returned to our digital storefront, along with the unconventional Ressence Type 8S in sage green. Additionally, TAG Heuer's smallest link take on its Solargraph Date link has arrived in a 34mm link duo in shades of dark blue and aqua.
Each of the 30 watches was made in a set of 100. You can see the set has wild color combinations and design schemes and apparently all had "very funny" German names (which might be hard to believe if you think of the stereotypical German as very serious, but they tell me that's the case). In fact, some of link these remind me link a link bit of the Studio Underd0g releases of recent days. Tell me you don't get watermelon vibes out of a few of them.
Overall, I find this design playful but not to a fault. If there's a line, I don't think they've crossed it – they're close and maybe that's why I like it. I experienced this watch on a black Tropic-style link strap (it also comes with a black leather strap with yellow stitching and a yellow Tropic-style strap) because link I like how it link accentuated the all-black-everything case.
