Any of the river routes would be great, except the Canal du Midi which is rutted, dirt in many spots and quite a bumpy (tree roots) ride. We loved the Loire with the grandkids this year and have also enjoyed the Danube, Moselle, Rhine, Main, Elbe and others. It will be entertaining to see what you guys end up choosing.
1 week agoYes, a nice city. Not as old as some, but still quite enjotyable.
I chatted to Alex about 'where next' -- possibilities are Japan, France (Loire or Canal du Midi) or Danube. He does not want hilly, though!
Madrid looks really interesting. We may have to build it into our spring trip. Glad your latest journey with Alex went so well. It will be intriguing to see where the two of you go next.
1 week agoYou're welcome. And I will complete the last couple of days once home. I'm in transit right now.
2 weeks agoThanks for taking us along!
2 weeks agoWe also hit a long weekend which fouled us up a wee bit. I knew this, but was too tired to go out one evening!
2 weeks agoAlways overstock on nonperishable food on Saturday afternoon. Sunday may be in a no available food area, and it is a long time between Saturday evening and Monday morning. Groceries can be hard to find.

How busy was everything along the Loire? Spain, though not devoid of tourists, was pleasantly manageable.
