Letter from Iona - #14 - One more week to go!

Hello All:

So, the time is drawing near.......and we have news to share!

This week we decided that rather than organize all of our own travels after we leave Iona, that we would prefer to try an organized tour with a reputable company. This method will save us cash and energy and will give us a more in depth experience for our money. So, after much exhaustive research and with huge thanks to Katie's brother Chris for his research, we have come to a conclusion. Here is our tour...........................................................


Europe Heritage


Highlights:
Dover, Amsterdam, Cologne, Rhineland, Heidelberg, Strasbourg, Lucerne, Liechtenstein, Innsbruck, Salzburg, Vienna, Venice, Rome, Florence, Pisa, French Rivieria, Monte Carlo, Nice, South of France, Barcelona, Madrid, Lourdes, Pau, Biarritz, Loire Valley, Paris

We're so very excited about this.....it's a 24 day long tour with all hotels, all breakfasts, and half our dinners included. Plus we got a super duper deal on the price and so, it's just worked out really really well. (By the way, can you tell who's typing?)

So, that has been our major activity for the week. Plus we've been busy getting excited about moving on and starting the next leg of our journey. Even Scooter got into the spirit....as you can see from his pic here, he's busy resting up on his travel pillow and chewing some lovely peach flavoured gum.......believe me, it was quite the fight to get it away from Dan long enough to take the pic!!

And so, we leave you now with only one more letter from Iona to come. As always, we hope that you are all doing very well and have had a wonderful summer. By the way....we need to send a shout out to Katie's sister Julia who turns 19 today.....look out world here she comes....Happy Bday kiddo!
