Headed Back to Europe!!!

We've had nebulous plans to return to Europe since we returned from our honeymoon there a year ago. Well, I finally sat down and came up with a basic itinerary for our next trip and we're both so excited!!! Of course, I would be perfectly content to spend two weeks doing absolutely nothing in Salzburg, but we decided that since this will likely be our last opportunity to travel before kiddos are involved, we'd like to see some new places. So here's our proposed itinerary!

Fly from DC to Dublin, Ireland
Fly from Dublin to Warsaw, Poland
Fly from Warsaw to Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Rail from Amsterdam to Brussels, Belgium
Fly from Brussels to Marseille, France
Fly from Marseille to Madrid, Spain
Fly from Madrid to Dublin and Dublin to DC

This is still somewhat in the works. If we do all those countries in two weeks, we'll only have one full day to spend in each. But we had a very similar schedule on our honeymoon and we both loved it. So we'll see.

I'd also like to get out to NYC for Christmastime this year. I've never seen NYC during Christmas before and it's been far too long in general since we've been there.

psshhhhh. Rich people. who does that? throw it in my face why don't you? i on the other hand have never even been ONCE let alone TWICE!

and YES come to NYC for Christmas- my family and I did it last year and it was nothing short of magical,,, plus we could meet up and take in a musical or a museum or something WOOT WOOT!

Jack had a crash course in Aquabats 101 last night by the way, and loved it. His favorite songs are, appropriately, the cat with two heads and attacked by snakes. Love that kid.

Looooong comment!!!!

I'm so jealous! DH and I went to Europe last summer shortly after our honeymoon (he got sent there for work and I tagged along). I'd love to go back! When are you planning on going?

probably sometime in April. I don't have firm dates yet, but that's what we're thinking. We'll probably start booking things after the holidays.
