Good choice on dates too - My only complaint on my Euro Delivery was some alpine passes were closed at the tail end of May; I should've went 4 to 6 weeks later.

Anyway, enjoy the anticipation, it's awesome! And maybe you and I will be running into each other somewhere during your trip......

When you mget an Alpine passes, do you mean the Swiss/Austrian/Italian Alps?

My ED date is roughly beginning of April and was hoping this would be clear to drive. Maybe i’m crazy..
Yes that's what I am talking about. It's all luck of the draw. People 4-5 days before me were able to cross the ones I couldn't (grossglockner/stelvio/susten/grimsel) and same for people the week after me. It's all a crapshoot, but the later in the season the better your odds.

Good luck!
