hi everyone. i've put together a draft of my 5 week itinerary for october. this seems like a doable pace, but i know you all know better than me. this may be very unrealistic. my goals are threefold: (1)to see as much of europe as possible, with a pace that is enjoyable and not frantic (2) to see some of the best castles (3)mountains or scenic like the alps. i will have 35 travel days. i'm sure some of these places aren't in the right order and will need to be changed. i may need to move the alps up. i'm meeting friends in berlin and mainz so those are set. also set is prague as i've always wanted to go. i'm not as sure about Bacarach and rothenburg, those were places RS recommends and they sounded good. also am not sure venice and florence. please give feedback re: pace and choice of locations.
