I have no idea how to even go about planning something like this....

I haven't planned something like it -- but, I'd definitely plan hotels ahead of time, just to be on the safe side.

Also, if you don't mind, I'd like for you to take the camera, in Paris, while I sing the National Anthem.

America is the greatest country in the world
All other countries are run by little girls


and so on......

That works for me. I was planning on working in a brothel in Paris while we're there. You know...make some extra cash for the rest of the trip. So I'll let you have the day off in Paris.

Re: Just found out with FFIL/FMIL's wedding gift is...

First I must say your FIL's ROCK!!!!!!!

That is the best gift anyone could ever give you!!!!

I did it after college and it seriously was the best experience ever and probably one of the best months of my life.

I did it a while ago and things have definatley changed (I went before 9/11 and our dollar was so strong that we stayed in nice hotels that were cheaper then the hostils.

Anyway my first suggestion is go get a Lonely Planet Book or start researching where you want to go. Once you ahve your "must have places" take it from there. See what sites are open on what days (we did not do this and therefore missed a few important things) and then flights. We flew into amsterdam -- took the rail from country to country and then when back to Amsterdam and fly home.

Ify ou want more info FM me.

I am so excited for you guys!!!!!!!!

Re: Just found out with FFIL/FMIL's wedding gift is...

Bonnie that is awesome. Depending on where you have/haven't been I would start in London or Paris, then take the chunnel to the other place. Then I might head to Belgium, Amsterdam and over to germany...

Alternatively you could do the mediteranean and go from Paris, south to Nice or Cannes, and work your way to Italy, Greece, Croatia, etc...

That is soooo exciting!

I don't think I'd make it out of Amsterdam alive.

I think it might be best to concentrate on 2 or 3 places....but then again I want to see so much!!!



I've never been to Paris or London...and as touristy as it is going to be, I feel like I have to go there... hmm....I dunno

Go to Amsterdam. NO need for more then a day or two there but so much fun!!!!!!! IMO -- paris was beautiful but again the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre and Norte Dam and your done. Two days is all you need. Unless you can afford the shopping -- then stay for a week!

Rome is my favorite city in the world so I always tell people to go there. But that is me.

I am so jealous!

Re: Just found out with FFIL/FMIL's wedding gift is...

wow that is so amazing. where is your HM again - is that a relaxing island trip? if so, then i'd say GO crazy and see whatever you can in Europe. I can only reccommend places in italy and i've been to london 2-3 times. I would narrow it down and definitely plan out some of the hotels - you'll be going in July or August right? Which is PEAK season and $$$ and high tourist season so it might be hard if you don't plan ahead in the major cities.

I hear you on Greece. For our HM, we're doing a 7 day mediterranean cruise that is mostly the greek islands b/c i've been dying to go but am too lazy to jump from island to island and book hotels and boats so i figured a cruise was the way to go. the 2nd week we'll be in italy, not sure exactly where yet. So when you decide let me know if you decide on italy! I will probably be back - I think we fly home 6/15 - with enough time to give you info where to go

sorry so long and rambling, i'm just excited for you!!! I love to travel and europe is amazing!!
