As a result of a marriage proposal, my son’s, not mine, we are off again. A good look around Paris, followed by a taste of regional France in the Burgundy district, Sue and I then fly to Wroclaw in Poland to celebrate the formalisation of Tim and Natalia’s long relationship, with a wedding in Poland. Allowing for plenty of time to take in the local Wroclaw sights, we will then fly to Lisbon, Porto, Vigo in Spain, finally arriving in Santiago de Compostela, a favourite place of mine, for 5 night. And days.
Refreshed and hopefully relaxed from this slow paced journey, we will arrive In Luxembourg, via Frankfurt, for a final 10 days of day trips and overnight stays to Bruge, Trier, and anywhere else that takes our fancy.
