Most of the hard work has been completed now and we are just waiting for August 30 to arrive. All our train journeys are booked and paid for. We managed to get our final train journey booked just around the same time we start hearing news reports of a series of serious train accidents occurring throughout Europe. It is a little unnerving but certainly not off putting. We are now just paying final accommodation payments as they arise (most of the accommodation needs to be paid in full before leaving Australia) and we only have a couple of payments left. We also managed to book the car that will get us around Scotland for the two days starting in Edinburgh and finishing in Glasgow. We went for a little luxury renting a BMW 320d. The photos of the car look good so I hope when we pick it up it's not a pile of shite.
There are few updates to the blog this time around which I will outline in my next post.
Other than that, not much else going on.
The Scroop family are hitting the holiday road, again, for another six week Griswold style European vacation. Starting in London we will train our way to Scotland, back down to Paris in France, on to Brugge in Belgium, Wurzburg in Germany, Salzburg in Austria, Lauterbrunnen in Switzerland and then to the Cinque Terre and Rome in Italy. Along the way we will hit the Scottish Highlands, scale the Eiger, walk the Cinque Terre trails and eat and drink our way to an empty bank account, again!
