My Winter Trip to Europe?
I feel a Europe trip coming on. I loved my Bavarian trip last year. I was thinking a combo trip of Paris for 4 days, Berlin 5 days and Dresden 3 days. Or would Vienna and Prague? Or ?????? Help a lady!

We're headed to Spain on the 26th, so def. a winter trip for us. We went to Paris and Belgium last year, during the first week of April, and it was wonderful! I highly recommend making a combo out of those two. I've been to Vienna and Prague several times during the winter, and although beautiful, it was so cold that I found it difficult to spend too much time outside (and I am a BIG walker).
So, my recommendation is to combine Paris with Brugges, by way of Brussels. The 1st class, TGV train wil get you r/t in high style (food included!). Change trains in Brussels. Enjoy the food and sites!

Vienna combined with Salzburg and/or Hall in Tirol would be another great option in the winter. I did this trip in Dec/Jan 2007. But I agree that Paris/Belgium is a fantastic winter combo. I did that the last week of Dec/first week of Jan this past year. Sure, it was cold-- but it's bound to be cold anywhere in Europe during the winter. I'd suggest adding in Ghent too if you do Brussels/Bruges/Paris combo.
