"Day 17 - Home and Post Trip Impressions"
It certainly looked like a very full and fun trip. I enjoyed checking in with your blog. Thanks.
We would not have been able to do this on our own. Huge trip and so exciting! I'm glad we did it. Maybe our last trip to Europe. Who knows...
"Day 16 - Cruising the Rhine and the Amsterdam Canals."
Two boat rides in one day. Both excellent. A great end to our trip.
"Day 15 - Innsbruck - Munich - Bad Durkheim"
Lunch by the Glockenspeil! We are very lucky.
Beautiful scenery everywhere you look. The hotel was very nice and quaint. I enjoyed Innsbruck!
Yes, beautiful and a much slower pace. Not a bad thing for
a vacation.
Venice really is a beautiful city but the drizzle and
cloudy weather put a “damper” on things. It is great to walk everywhere and not
have to worry about cars…
We did enjoy ourselves although the public toilets closed at 7:30 and we had to
head back at 8; poor timing.
Gondola ride in Venice!! Who would think Ed and I would be doing this. Such a great trip.
Vatican City and Saint Peter’s Basilica are everything you
have read about. The Colosseum is remarkable; I am sure there were some
interesting shows put on there….
So happy Margarita was found; we were all relieved.
Another great, amazing day! We should be losing weight with
all the walking.
"Day 11 - Florence and on to Rome"
Everywhere you turn in the cities is a spectacular
building, chapel or tower. I enjoyed Florence and can’t wait to explore more of
Rome tomorrow. We are all praying for Margarita. :(
The history of the Leaning Tower is quite interesting. All
of the buildings in that square were spectacular!
We're in Italy!
"Day 9 - Bus, Gondola, Cable Car, Horse Buggy, Bus"
Always a fun filled day, going to the top of Pilatus was spectacular. It was quite interesting to see the dairy farm in the middle of town.
Hard to believe we can pack so much in to one day!!
Wonderful.
"Day 8 - Paris to Lake Lucerne, Switzerland"
Again, beautiful scenery!
"Day 7 - Strolling Paris and the Moulin Rouge"
We always seem to have so much fun. Good choices!
"Day 6 - Bus - Boat - Bus - Boat - Bus"
We are in Paris!
"Day 5 - Greenwich Park, the Cutty Sark and the Prime
Meridian."
Greenwich Park is beautiful! I'm glad
we added that to our list!
"Day 4 – The British Museum, Parliament, Buckingham Palace"
The British Museum
was a must and didn’t disappoint. The weather was gorgeous too, no rain so far.
We are getting the hang of the tube system……I think.
It is a massive museum! We almost got lost a couple of times....
"Day 3 - Windsor Castle, Stonehenge, Lacock and Bath"
It was a long day but a good one. We didn't get to see the
King but his “home” is very grand. Even tho we didn’t get to time travel,
Stonehenge is still impressive. A great site seeing day weather wise too.
The Changing of the Guard was so exciting! We weren't inside, but marching in the street, the Security, just amazing!
"Day 1/2 - April 1-2, Travel and a bit of London"
As far as travel goes, this was one of the best days yet. Virgin Atlantic does it right. We are in London! Time to act like tourists.
London! We had a great trip overseas, great weather, so lucky!
