Why? How? Who?

Hello friends,
as most of you already now I am planning to go from Vilnius to Madrid in an old Russian Car.
Why?
Well, this is one of this kind of things which starts like joke between friends, I don't remember who was the first in suggest that we could do more than 3500 Km in an old Lada, but the fact is that I have heared about time to time during last year.
I told to my friends that we could go by train, but they do not like the idea of a nice hollydays, they preffer going in a Sauna Lada through Europe in the middle of June.
Finally, two weeks ago I received an e-mail from my friends which said. Jaime, we already have bought the flight tickets from Madrid to Riga, so buy the fucken car.
(That day I was planning running away and do not speak them anymore, but finally I decided to start looking for a car)
How?
I am not sure yet, I guess half time in the car, half time pushing it. The plan is going through Poland to Slovakia, then Czech Republic, Germany, Switzerland, France and Spain but soon I will upload the planned schedule.
Who?
of course me, actually I am the craziest of us, because I have seen the car, I have tried it, and I know what is waiting for us...and the worst thing I like it and I am looking forward for it =)
Fernando, you don't know him yet, but we have a lot of faith in him, if something goes wrong for sure he will be able to fix it, and if he is not he will pretend that he is.
Jorge, he is the only without driving licence, but he drove a dumper in a Scotish Village, so he will drive when the others will be drunk like pigs.
Piotr, we are allways kidding him about Poland, but now I am happy that he speaks Polish because if something goes wrong in Poland, after Fernando pretends fixing it we will have to ask for some help.
¿Marcos Porras?, he told me that he is 80% in the trip 20% out, so we are not sure of his participation yet, but it would be great if he can come and help us with his good mood and mechanical skills, just be carefull waking him up :P
¿Elenita?, my neighbour, she is also a little crazy like me and she will go by train through Europe, I hope she will join us after Switzerland.

Well, I have many things to tell but I will try to write it by small chapters, so in next episode you will be able to read about Lada's bought, our first Kms, my first crash and more :P
