So ein Zufall: der Besitzer des Boston Minuteman Campground ist der Bruder des Besitzers vom Shady Knoll Campground auf Cape Cod, wo wir letzte Nacht Quartier bezogen hatten. Und die Zufälle gehen weiter: auf beiden Plätzen baten wir um guten WiFi (WLan) Empfang und auf beiden wurden wir jeweils direkt bei einem der Repeater untergebracht - und der WiFi-Empfang wie auch die Geschwindigkeit ist auf beiden Plätzen tadellos.

Next tuesday we start "The Blues-Lobster-WoMo-Tour" - driving a motorhome from Fort Lauderdale, Florida to Boston, Massachusetts. And who is in Boston (or close to) ? Right, Acquia - THE DRUPAL company founded by Dries Buytaert. So maybe it is possible to stop in Burlington, Massachusetts and have look inside Acquia, meet the people behind Acquia. How and where the work, maybe get some Drupal News - take some photos and write about the vistit in our tour blog...

Maybe... its a long way from Florida to Massachusetts and actually we don't have a "fixed program". We start with the "Blues" and we hope to end with "Lobster" and maybe "Acquia"...

Here is the blog for the "Blues-Lobster-WoMo-Tour"
