Where in the World

Since we've starting planning this trip the biggest question is where will we go?

We are not hot weather people, Daniel's red hair, fair skin and my tendancy for heat rash give us both an incentive to knock Spain off the list before summer sets in.

Very vaguely the plan is thus:
Cross using the channel tunnel and drive to Spain via France.
Spain and Portugal during April then drive up through the south of France to the Netherlands and Denmark in May. Take a ferry to Scandinavia for the longest day and midnight sun in June. June/July in Scandinavia then travel down through St Petersberg and Estonia.
And then....we aren't really sure. Up to 3 months to do Europe and try to get some more stamps in our passports.
I'd like to see Rome again, visit Pompei, Switzerland, eat lots of cheese and drinks lots of wine.
Maybe catch a few of the festivals on Van Tour like, Tomatina, Pamplona, Octoberfest.

• April - France, Spain Portugal
• May - France, Netherlands, Denmark
• June - Norway, Sweden,
• July - Finland, St Petersberg, Estonia
• Aug, Sept, October - Italy, Switzerland, Germany and others.

As I said; very very vague.

Our insurance does limit us to certain countries, which whilst constricting may make our choices just that little bit easier. We've spent some time in Eastern Europe but still want to tick off Prague. I'd like to do such things as an intensive language course in Spain, some volunteer work, stay with some local families, do some hiking.

We have discovered from our previous travels that we don't have burning desire to see everything. There are certain places I'd not wish to miss but we are really going to have to find our own rhythm...else we will probably pack up and come home after 2 months.
