The Pomeranian Adventure Tour Group was comprised of 42 individuals, 17 from
Wisconsin, 7 from Illinois, 5 from Michigan, 6 from California, 2 from Alabama,
2 from Oregon, 2 from South Dakota, and 1 from Minnesota. Our tour guide
and driver were from Austria. It was a great group of individuals and we
had a great time together. Many long-term friendships were formed.
