Summer 2018 part 2

     Well, all plans are made and confirmed for Europe 2018!  I fly into Berlin and will be there for 7 nights at the same hotel I have been using there.  I will be, as previously reported, in the apartment in Weimar all of July and August.  From there I will be going to Munich - again.  I know, I know, I was just there last summer.  But, it rained everyday so I am going again and it better not rain at all.   After 7 nights in Munich I will head to Brussels for 4 nights.  I don't remember how many  years it has been since my last trip to Brussels.  Finally, from there I will be going to London for 7 nights. The London hotel I booked is a HUGH extravagance but I don't care and will tell about it when I am there.
     So, that is it for the moment.  All I can do now is wait to go.  However, I am going to Punta Cana in the DR for 4 nights in May to attend the wedding celebration of a son of friends of mine.  So I can write about that when I am there.

Summer 2018

     I have been trying to finalize my plans for Summer 2018 but forgot that I have to be back in the US before my nephew's wedding on 21 September.  So I have been re-planning the month of September.  I had thought that I would be in Karlsruhe, Baden for 3 nights but that is out.  I had also thought that I would be flying home from Amsterdam but can not find a nice hotel for less than $400/night!!!   The Radisson, where I have stayed in the past is @ $270/night.  So I have been looking into flying home from Paris.  That would be fine with me as I have not been there in a few years and would like to go back.  I have found a hotel that seems nice so now I just have to re-check air fares coming home from Paris instead of Amsterdam.
     Problems, problems, problems.   The only thing is I have to get my act together and make some decisions.
