first thoughts on itinerary

we are starting to collect our thoughts on where when and how

- first to Dordrecht by Emirates for some weeks, then
- onto London, maybe Ireland, by ferry and plane for a couple of weeks, then
- Paris and Estaires by train and hire car, for a couple of weeks, then
- on to Venice by train for a few days, then
- down to Rome by train for a few days, then
- Pompei and Lecce and perhaps Sicily by train and ferry for a few weeks, then
- up to Dordrecht by trian, plane for St Nicolas 5 December and finally
- home to Canberra!

The wild card is that we think cruising the Mediterranean could be cool - either aboard Royal Clipper or Louis Cruises - and we are checking that out too - for a week or so.
