So after month of thinking and soul searching, the wife has calm down a little and has shelved the idea of moving to VA or back to CA.. for now.
With house nearly paid off and how i have been saving a few bucks, she wants to visit Europe before she gets too old. The only out of the country she had ever gone to was a trip back to visit her relatives in China years back. She has actually never been to any other country at all! So we could used the money for moving and stuffs on vacation instead, now that it's just the two of us with the kid in college.
Plan is to fly to London Heathrow airport. Stayed and do the usual sign seeing around London for three days before spending a day in oxford. Fifth day will be taking the Eurostar to Paris. (unless there are other must see places around UK)
Spend three days around Paris, then take the train to Italy (Venice) and spent three days around there before flying home.
Still haven't thought of what to see around London, Paris or Venice, so going to search a bit but for now that's the time line we have.
Any tips and area of interests you would recommend? Would limited to stay and do things around one city (Paris or Venice) be not good? But with limietd time, not sure which towns/cities would be worth going.
