Post-Trip Answers to Your Own Trip Planning Questions
« on: January 01, 2018, 10:31:06 AM »
I note that many interesting trip planning questions go unanswered, or are not completely or thoroughly dealt with; and I would love to learn how it worked out and how the questioners would answer their own questions upon their return. That would make the DDF an even  more valuable resource for trip planners. I propose that, while we may not have the time or inclination to do a trip report, when we have some time after returning, to please go back and quote your own question and answer it in the same thread for the benefit of others. Thank you in advance.

You should answer them in the thread where they were asked. Doesn't make sense to start a new thread. Usually this is what TRs are for either way

If you can find all the places where I asked questions, I'll gladly quote and answer them.

In your case, your excellent trip reports would render that exercise redundant.

You're too kind. I'm blushing. But my point still stands for other people. Try quoting them and asking as I see you just did in the Spain thread.

Right after the trip it should not be so difficult.
