Travel

I couldn't figure out how to do it online, but my AAA agent was able to arrange it. We spent three nights there, then went on to London and rented a car and drove through England, Scotland and Wales for the next ten days. Then took the Chunnel to Paris to visit our daughter for six more days.

In retrospect, three weeks was too much vacation. After two weeks we were ready to go home. It's tempting to cram everything in that you can, but less fun in the end.

This year we went to visit relatives in Germany and limited it to two weeks, and only Bavaria, from Munich to the Alps to the Black Forest and Stuttgart. It was great--much more relaxing. Our daughter took the high speed train from Paris to Munich to join us.

Live and learn!
