Europe 1998 ????????????????????

Video from my trip to Europe in 1998

15 years ago I got back from my first trip to Europe. Here, finally, are the video highlights.

Daniel’s 1998 Europe trip highlights from Daniel Bowen on Vimeo.

Includes England (south-east, London, and York), Scotland (Edinburgh, Inverness, Plockton), Brussels, Bruges, Amsterdam.

Worth noting…

  • The blog posts written at the time are available here: Europe 1998.
  • This was pre-Oyster. Most of the travel around London was old mag stripe travelcards.
  • I can’t help noticing how red my face got when walking in the wilderness of Scotland.
  • Sorry about the picture quality. This was filmed on Video 8, and has come via VHS. This edit excludes most of the footage from visiting my family in England.

Great stuff! You certainly do like trains.
I have been following your blog for 15 years so I remember your o/s trips.

If that’s London, why does it say Seattle ? Or maybe it doesn’t. It’s dark.

An excellent video of the danish school

How did you transfer from VHS to computer. With a special video card or something?

I think lots of people have home videos that they would like to save as digital files onto a HDD.
