But I don’t care enough to really think about it. They are normally easy to spot when they slip after a few weeks. Link to comment

Clydeside_Sheep Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Holiday booked to the German Reich. We were flirting with visiting the black forest, in the end we plumped for the Moselle Valley again, near Trier. Beautiful, good weather, loads to do and see, very few english speakers (mainly yank tourists in trier) and only ~4 hours drive from Amsterdam (going through Belgium) meaning I have time for a bit of doobie shopping after we get off the ferry. Arriving end of June - though Id give the boche some time to recover after we fuck them in the opening game of the euros! Hooray! Link to comment
Donstar83 Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Is everywhere abroad expensive as fuck now? Tried pricing up a 2 week all inclusive to Turkey or Greece and it's the guts of 5k for the 3 of us. Wife speaking about an air b and b somewhere abroad. Link to comment

ullevi Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 Don’t go to Dubrovnik in August will be absolutely mobbed with cruise ships. Montenegro and Albania are the places to go to Kotor is stunning and Tirana is nice also a few beach places in Albania worth a look Link to comment

There are some UNESCO Churches too. Plus St Matthias Benedictine Abbey. And the house where Karl Marx was born (visit so you can spit as you pass lol). We were back in 2017. A beautiful city to walk around too. No end to its charms really! Looking forward to going back - one of the kids (P4) was learning about the Romans in School recently, so it will tie up well with that. I have always been suspicious of the Belgians lol, but may take your advice. Luxembourg worth visiting? Of course, the real beer pilgrimage to be made in this area imo is to the town of Bitburg and its brewery (was there in 2017, doubt the miserable missus would go back lol). Link to comment
