Mikey is now on holidays and its planes, trains and automobiles for us for the next 4 weeks. Yay! After painstakingly whittling down our wishlist of places to see (which seems to be getting longer rather than shorter), we are heading to the following locations:
4-9 April Copenhagen, Denmark
9-13 April Berlin, Germany
13-16 April Salzberg, Austria
16-21 April Vienna, Austria
21-25 April Milan, Italy
25-28 April Marseille, France
28-1 May Avignon, France
1-4 May Paris, France
4-5 May Frankfurt, Germany
Most of these places we have never visited, although Mikey has been to Vienna and we have both been to Paris. We are particularly looking forward to Austria and spending some time in the south of France. Hopefully we will get some warmer weather as we go along. It has been pretty cold so far (10°C is a warm day).
On 5 May, we fly from Frankfurt to Austin, Texas – where Mikey goes back to work – and then we head home to Australia at the end of May/start of June.
I’m not sure how much access we will have to the internet while we are on the road, so my blogs may be posted in bursts…
Holidays … woo hoo!
Can I suggest that you take at least a day trip to Arles from Avignon or Marseille? It’s a gorgeous little town where Van Gogh spent a fair amount of time painting and there are some of the best roman ruins in France, including a colosseum.
I spent almost a week there and absolutely loved it.
