In 45 hours, my wife and I leave Canada for our first trip to Italy and Greece.

In Italy we will be seeing Venice, Cinque Terre, Pisa, San Gimignano, Siena and Rome. We will have our first experience traveling by train & bus.
In Greece, we will be visiting Santorini, Paros and Athens. From Paros we will be making day trips to Delos and Mykonos, and Antiparos.

With help from this and other forums and websites, we are ready and confident of a "GREAT" holiday.

9 days 'til I head to Chicago and 36 or 37 days until I go back to Paris (can't decide if I'll leave Thursday or Friday); just in time for the Fetes de Vendanges de Montmartre (have always wanted to see this).

anne5o57, you'll be there in time for the wine festival, too!

Hey flygirl! Have a fab time in all your new haunts and be sure to send me photos (your Venice ones were classic)!

34 days until we leave from USA to Athens, then on to Turkey, Greek Islands, Dubrovnik, Venice and Paris.

This is our second trip to Europe.

We also spend every February (for the last 18 years) out of the country - in Mexico.

Gotta finish my trip report and pictures for Maine/Nova Scotia :(

Well, the trip report is done, but I'm still sorting through 3000 photos!

7 days almost to the minute before we leave for Italy (first European trip): Rome, Tuscany, Venice and Florence. Thanks to all of you, your recommendations, many guidebooks and the Slow Travel site, I feel more than ready, and definately eager!!! Thanks again.

Woo. Hoo. I am leaving for Europe in about 4 hours.

No trips in my immediate future except a trip with the high school band to New York City for the Veteran's Day Parade in November. I guess that qualifies. It is in 60 days. Hey Beatchick, have fun in Paris, I know you always do. Did you ever get a chance to look at my pics from 2006? I never heard from you again after I posted the link and I haven't frequented this site much in a while. I'm hoping to change from Elementary to High School next school year and teach History so my travels to Europe should start back up when I can get a group together, in 2009 or 2010.

Only two weeks before hitting the trail for Ireland and Italy - just re-confirming hotels, cars and making sure my sister and mom don't forget anything!

monicainindy Sep 21st, 2007 01:40 AM

Seven hours till take off here. Going to Oktoberfest, followed by nine days in Tuscany and four in Venice....

Then the planning starts for Spain and Portugal next year!

i_am_kane Sep 21st, 2007 05:15 AM

This was an unexpected trip: October 2007 to Brugge and Amsterdam.

Aren't we all lucky bunch to be able to travel like this!

LowCountryIslander Sep 21st, 2007 05:27 AM

21 and a half hours until take-off for Turkey! Have been planning this 2.5 week trip for the last year and a half! :)

Now if I can just get out of the office on time! ;)

astein12 Sep 21st, 2007 05:45 AM

Iceland for two weeks... leaving next Tuesday! Woohoo!

lifeofmytime Sep 21st, 2007 07:25 AM

35 hours and counting! I'll be flying off to Glasgow for a couple nights, followed a couple nights on the Isle of Skye, and we'll finish off with 2 nights in Ballachulish in the Highlands. I've never been to the UK and I'm finally letting myself get excited as of today. I keep thinking something is going to come up and we won't be able to go - we've had a couple close calls already. But I think it's now safe to say I'm going to Scotland tomorrow!

Two weeks 'til a family road trip up the California Coast to see the majestic redwoods, then on to Yosemite! The crowds should be gone by then...

Eight months until my first trip to Paris! Wahoo!

scdreamer Sep 22nd, 2007 02:52 PM

fischerl - I live in the Santa Cruz Mountains - right in the redwoods - I bet you will be coming to my area! Hope you enjoy your trip - the redwoods are truly amazing. Be sure to walk the Redwood Loop at Henry Cowell Park - it's especially beautiful this time of year.

I'm leaving three weeks from today for Europe - Greece, Turkey, Croatia, Venice and Paris. Can't wait!
