For those that want to go to Europe and don't wish to spend an exuberant amount, I hope this is comprehensible. I'm not promoting any of the sites I'm only sharing another option to go. I still have 2 nights that needs to be filled, I'll book them over there. Keep in mind that many of these hostels have private rooms, some have kitchens, and most include breakfast. As far as the airfare, I had to stay on-line and check almost everything, before I got the good rates, so it does take time. I look at it as a challenge & I don't mind giving a trip report if anyone's interested, when I get back. In the meantime, thanking all of you for your generosity in the extremely helpful input I recieved from these forums. By the way, the info in quotation marks are from the web pages of the places, not from me.

Well done, and useful info for anyone traveling on a tight budget!

And I really love the "exuberant amount" bit :)
