We echo this!!! After a wait of 2 years, Ken and I are finally doing our Provence trip. I know quite a few are experiencing this as well, all due to a little thing called Covid. We were supposed to do the trip 2 years ago May, and at the point it got cancelled, we, like so many others thought, no problem, we will just go in the Fall. Looking back, none of us had a clue that 2 years later we would be just starting to get back to whatever normal is. Masks, while used pre-Covid in Asia, are now just part of our lives, Covid vax’s will most likely continue and hand-washing should be now at the forefront of everyone’s minds regardless of the virus.
This will be our 5
th Backroads trip and Provence has always been on the top of our list, but Tuscany, Croatia, Basque Country and Parma/Verona were all done prior putting it now solely at the top. Known for amazing food, great Rose wine and beautiful scenery all amongst vines, sun and rolling hills will make this a great trip.
As many of you know, Ken/I moved to Dublin, Ireland in August 2021 and love our

Beautiful beaches in Nice new home. However, last week it was obvious that the weather was going to be less than desirable up until the point we were leaving on Thursday. Ken, who is retired and footloose decided he would head to Nice, our first destination on Monday afternoon. It was forecasted to be 80 degrees and sunny every day, a far better option than Dublin. As I am still working and had in-person meetings on Wednesday, I was hanging at home until our normal fight.
These first few entries will be brief as Ken isn't much of a writer...he actually does quite well, so I may get him writing yet!!
