The bay window looks rather modern compaired to the other vehicles. Maybe the newest vehicle in the picture.

Is the Gray Hound bus station still there? Be sure to get it in the picture if you do photo again. We maybe start a new thread: Old photo & new photo with bay windows in the same locations. Or has this been done already? Could be fun...

That sounds pretty cool.

And Sunnydog can ship his bus back to Germany and retrace the route his family took when he was 7... taking pics at the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, etc. Dancing

Does it count if we have a photo of Andres and his family in their bus "Emma" in say..... Portland, and then we have a photo of Sven and Emma in "Big Emma" in the same place?
