Pam: Well, I started packing today, lol....for my trip that begins the end of August!! <-----Haha! Wonderful!
Lane: Thanks for the link! I would have never known.
Wow, everyone - thanks for the suggestions. I was thinking of looking into some history books and studying maps but I was thinking that would take up too MUCH time! Now, I think I will haha!
Keep the suggestions coming!
Judy B and everyone else who might be wondering:
June 28: Leave! Overnight flight into London-Gatwick.
June 29: Arrive at Gatwick. Then flying from there to Nice, France (It was our least expensive option).
June 30: Monaco! We are planning to go to the casinos. My friend likes to gamble so she'll gamble and I'll just follow her around looking at everything, eating and crowd-watching. Only going during the day since we didn't want to pack "fancy" clothing for the gambling crowds in the evening.
July 1: See the sights in Nice!
July 2: Travel to Chamonix.
July 3: Go up Mont Blanc!
July 4: Travel to Paris.
July 5: Versailles! I'm excited about this!
July 6-8: Louvre, Notre Dame and Eiffel Tower. Sightsee in Paris.
July 9: Travel to London.
July 10-11: Sightsee in London. I really wanted to see Hampton Court Palace (big King Henry VIII fan) but just not enough time to go. Since we already see Versailles, I was thinking ole Henry could wait!
July 12: Mad Max Tour in Bath
July 13: Fly Home :(
Anyone who wants to share their itinerary too? I would want some ideas for my next trip - yes, already thinking about my next trip. Plus what other travel forums are out there? I would be interested in a travel forum the focuses on Asia.
Thank you everyone!
