    Very little. The only thing Beethoven ever mentioned about it was that on the trip his feet were almost frozen and his mother had to keep them warm.

        Thanks for the link, Joy!

        A note: I was not able to access the link with Firefox but was with Internet Explorer.

            Then your settings are different than mine and/or you have a different version of Firefox. I made the note in case others had similar problems with Firefox so that they would understand the issue is not with the link itself.

              Any Firefox should be able to open a PDF. Do you have the right plugin?

                So, as a result of this trip, Beethoven wrote 'Urian's Reise um die Welt' 0p.52 no.1.
                Did I miss this on Rod's mp3's ?

                  I didn't present this music as I only have it 'modern'.

                    Maybe you should correct that to any Firefox with the *correct* plugin. ;-)

                    OBVIOUSLY, I don't, then, have the correct plugin. And if I don't others may not either. The issue isn't being able to open any PDF. The issue is how the PDF is accessed. My Firefox should be able to open PDF's, but then I have so many computers here and at work that I can't keep track of all the plugins I use on whichever Firefox I am using.

                      Well I think 'right' was adequate in ths context, I am familiar with the English language. That you cannot open a simple PDF should be your primary concern.

                          A peculiar question, but my recording lasts 5'11 mins.
