Glenn, I'm extremely sorry about your shirt. Send me the cleaning bill. Next time I send something your way I'll be sure to include a nice bib for you to wear while you read SOTD posts!
Thanks for the compliment. Of course, the gentlemen behind the steel really deserve the credit. I just have the good fortune of getting to use these blades!He saw a lawyer killing a viper on a dunghill hard by his own stable; And the Devil smiled, for it put him in mind of Cain and his brother Abel.

Danke Max, thanks Max!
I think we are well prepared, all our hotels have WLAN (for free).
I prepared already some pictures with the equipment I'll take with me. Each day I'll send a picture of the day with the equipment combined with landscape.

Week of May 8 SOTD - Thursday
Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: 26mm Saville Row 3326 Silvertip Badger Razor: 13/16" Dubl Duck "SatinEdge", Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point (soon to be Maximized) Strop: 40/45 laps (Torolf linen/Premium IV leather) Überlather: L'Occitane "Cade" Shave Creme + L'Occitane "Cade" Shave Soap + Glycerin Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol) Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer After Shave Splash: Floïd Spanish Blue AS Cologne: Floïd Spanish Blue EdC Results: This Duck is one of my best shavers. She is soon destined to be Maximized. I love the edge on this beauty...She's the best of two worlds: extra smooth on the skin, but extra hard on whiskers. And of course, the Cade combo provided for a lubricating lather. Once the ratio of soapater:air on this soap is patiently dialed in correctly, the resultant lather is truly to be savored. Thick and ultra moist. Additionally, the Saville Row made the "lathering" process enjoyable and the its application a luxurious experience. All in all, a well rounded and terrific shave .
******************************
Have an AMAZING Thursday gentlemen .
Tom: enjoy your trip buddy. Be safe
