Our visit to Prague was actually divided into two different visits. Our impressions of Prague were completely different between our two stays, owing to our choice of where to stay.
Why Leipzig? Bach, the Music Trail, and a Great Downtown
Between Berlin and our next “Great Capitols of Europe” tour stop of Prague, lies Leipzig. We wanted to stop between Berlin and Prague and Mike knew it was home to Bach.
Visiting Ruins in the Sicilian Countryside
On the heels of our Food and Wine Tour in Sicily, we chose to hang out in Sicily for a few more days and explore parts of the island that weren’t included in the tour, especially the Greek temples in Agrigento.
Fascinating History in Pompeii, Herculaneum, and Naples
The one place we couldn’t miss on our tour of southern Italy was Pompeii. From Sorrento, we spent the entire day climbing Mt. Vesuvius, walking around Pompeii, and finally getting lunch at a winery on the side of Mt. Vesuvius.
Rome With A Food and Art Focus
Our roving retirement Roman Holiday continued for a second week, with yet more galleries, food porn, and a steamy Night At The Opera. I’m sure you want to hear and see what we ate in Rome, yum.
