Pam Taylor

During their family trip, the Taylor Family kept a family blog that has now become a family book. Each family member signed up to be the family tour guide for two or three European nations. Tour guides were responsible to choose where to go, how to get there, what to do, and where (and what) to eat. In all these decisions, the tour guide had to stay within the family trip budget. Caitlin was the official event coordinator. As la especialista en espaol, she planned the familys tour of Spain. England and Luxembourg were her other responsibilities. Our Big Engineering Nerd (BEN) and webmaster handled the administration of the blog website. Ben guided family tours in Germany, Belgium and Czech Republic. Lindsey was le guide franais, leading the familys travels in France, Austria, and Lichtenstein. She served as the family concierge, making each new residence feel like home in these very foreign places. No tour would be complete without a running narration. Abby stepped up to meet the need as the familys color commentator. La especialista portugus, she pioneered the explorations in Portugal. She also facilitated family forays into Northern Ireland and Ireland. The matriarch, Pam, was the official navigator. Her organizational skills earned her the title Manager of Mayhem (MOM). She led the family tours of the Netherlands and Switzerland. The patriarch, Jim, scouted out and blazed the trails for many family hikes. He was also Director and Driver (DAD). The nations of Italy, Scotland, and Wales were his special responsibility.
