Introduction

Traveling to and from European countries has never been easier. With stop over flights in countries of your choice, these stop overs enable you to have a break from what is essentially a whole day flight from Australia.

Given the fact that Europe is only slightly larger than Australia in total land mass size, getting around will prove to be much more difficult. Your average sized Falcon or Commodore equivalent in Europe, is the Fiesta and other small Fiat style cars. 


Sightseeing

Europe is well known for its captivating Caribbean, Greek Isles, historic buildings, ancient art and classy civilisations. From skiing the alps and drinking wine in classic vineyards, to the home of Michael Schumacher and all things Ferrari, Europe has it all to see and do. The ritzy Monaco, a sure visitation [though I wouldn't recommend purchasing anything] is also a must see. Prague, the Czech Republic capital, is just a truly beautiful experience, where words can not bring true justice to just how stunning the city is.

My must see country destinations are as follows:

Spain
Portugal
France
Luxembourg
Monaco
Austria
Germany
Sweden
England
Italy
Czech Republic
Mediterranean
Greece
and of course, England.

Interesting Information

Europe is the land of many ethnic cultures with common roots of Christian and Jewish religions and a savage heritage of war. For hundreds of years Europeans have longed for the unity and Pax Romana of the ancient Roman Empire with a common currency, law, borderless trade and language. Only recently through the European Union and European Commission has such a dream finally been realized. In an uncommon era of peace and prosperity, borders have been relaxed and a common currency, rules and regulations have been adopted making it far easier to travel through the Old European cities particularly in Eastern Europe with freedom and wonderful awe celebrating the wonderful diversity of cultures preserved and working peacefully together for common prosperity. Now is the time to celebrate these new found freedoms and reach out and travel to rediscover your neighbors and their heritage.

The cities of Moscow, Kiev, Prague, Vienna, Gdansk, Krakow, Sophia and Budapest await your pilgrimage of new life and new discovery of old heritages.

Join that to travel by rail pass through Madrid, Paris, London, Amsterdam, Munich, Berlin, Warsaw, Stockholm, Rome, Zurich and Trieste and crown yourself as a true European Continental traveler of world class.

Istanbul Travel Planning

We're planning a trip to Istanbul this fall. Usually we'd consult a guidebook. But you know what I did first? I looked for travel blogs. After all, the most up to date information is more likely to come from a frequently updated online source--and since some things, like hot restaurants, come and go with frightening speed, online is often the way to go when planning a foodie foray--and I've heard Turkish cuisine is one of the tops in the world.

So I've made a list of my favorite Istanbul and Turkey travel blogs: Top Turkey Travel Blogs. I'm going in fall, so I need some historic weather data in order to pack appropriately, which you can peruse too: Istanbul Weather and Historic Climate - When to Go to Istanbul.

And here's a map of  Western Turkey for good measure. Happy travel planning.

Men Kissing Parakeets

Perhaps you don't know this, but Greenland is an autonomous place, a part of Denmark. It is defrosting right now.

Andrew Evans, a travel writer, landed in Greenland recently. He has been twittering his impressions of the place which, considering area, is the world's largest island that is not a continent, according to Wikipedia.

I like Mr. Evans because his twitter pic shows him kissing a parakeet. It is not unlike my twitter pic. Birds of a feather and all that.

In any case, It's interesting following a writer as he describes one of Europe's most exotic destinations in literary slices of life consisting of fewer than 140 characters. Mr. Evans has one odd and creative web site too, so the ride should be fun.
