We are probably going to be in Europe the first two weeks of May to visit our daughter, who lives in Luzern, Switzerland. I've been to visit her 3 times (last visit was this past December), and while there is so much of Switzerland I haven't seen yet, we thought the three of us might leave the country for 3- 7 days because:
- my daughter could use a vacation
- the last time we were there in early May, it snowed
- my husband isn't crazy about Switzerland. Mostly he doesn't like how expensive it is
I'm looking for something that isn't too onerous to get to, will have some nice weather, and I was going to say "not so expensive," but then anything is less expensive than Switzerland, so I guess that's a given.
Today my daughter suggested Calabria, which seems really far, but maybe not with high speed trains? She also suggested Sardinia, but I hear it's very expensive and I'd rather avoid flights. Also Kefalonia, Greece is high on my list, but seems like too much travel. We like trains . . . planes, not so much.
So, leaving from central Switzerland . . . where to go for 3-7 days, with minimal travel hassle, and probably decent sunny weather. It doesn't need to be hot. Just pleasant.
