We are planning our 21 day tour of Great Britain without Ireland for next summer. We would prefer to exclude Liverpool/Blackpool area and ADD the Yorkshire Dales. How might we re-arrange the drive to make that work for us? Any other adjusments? Leigh of California

Leigh,
Did you post your itinerary previously? I don't see it here and don't know where you are going other than the changes you mention. Matt
