Europe On My Mind...

It's the school holidays so what better time to go on a vacation! Europe seems to be calling me. With all the great places, I'm having a hard time choosing which cities to go... sigh... I guess I could plan my dream road trip across Europe or something.

Well, after giving it some thought, I'd love to travel to these three places starting with Amsterdam in the Netherlands and go see the windmills, something that I've always wanted to see, the lovely canals, sample some of the various cheese offerings, visit the DAM square and the great museum of Van Gogh. Oh, and not forgetting those lovely tulips:).

I've always read about all those interesting places and actually being there to see it with my own eyes would be a dream come true. Finding accommodations wouldn't prove to be too much of a problem as there are plenty of Amsterdam hotels you can choose from. And they're all reasonably priced and comfortable.

My next destination on my dream road trip would be Athens and once I check out all the Athens hotels to make sure of my accommodations, I'll be all set to check out this city so full of history... the beautiful Temple of Olympus, Ancient Agora and wandering the ruins of the Acropolis. Greece is known for its historical sites, the interesting museums of which you can learn all about Greece's history. And most of the Greece hotels are known for their reasonable rates so they won't burn a hole in your pocket.

My final stop would definitely be Prague, in the Czech Republic. The country is surrounded by scenic mountains with popular ski resorts and other attractions that include the magnificent Prague Castle and the Old Town Square surrounded by the many beautiful historical structures; the Wenceslas Square which is the largest and busiest shopping street in Prague. Ooh, I can't wait to shop till I drop... hehehe. And there are plenty of Prague hotels within the vicinity of these interesting sites.

I guess the next and most important thing I need to do is save some money so I can actually go on this road trip. Well, you can't stop a girl from dreaming now can you :D

  1. Hello!

    I like your Blog, it is so pretty. :) I did a search on Europe and you popped up. I love Europe. I've had the opportunity to go twice, Italy and France. It was beautiful! I really want to go back, but it will probably be a couple of years. Sigh. Maybe you will go and I can live vicariously through your blog. :)

  2. A road trip through Europe, whoa, that is a cool idea. The scenery alone would be an added bonus :)
