Me, I am taking Trigger, my TE160, to the Rhineland area of Germany, accompanied by my mate [also a 78 yo pensioner :P ]
Plenty of good driving opportunities in scenic countryside with Koblenz Boppard & Mainz nearby :broon:
Also food & self rental accommodation is very reasonable [I've booked a 2 bed apt. for the 1st week in Aug. for a cost of £250]
Booked on route hotel & DFDS ferry to Dunkirk - can't wait.

The VVC will be going to Italy again (4th time) but I think we will be in the Verona/Lake Garda area again, we loved Naples but it's just so much further.
The ZS will probably be going to the mother in laws in Bilbao again but we tend to cheat and sail Portsmouth/Bilbao and then drive 1000miles taking her out for days.
The MPi will be going, not on holiday, just going.

Hi James, might consider Lake Garda next year, but I would think it would work out quite expensive ;)
Will tap your knowledge when the time comes.

Health issues with the inlaws mean i cant stray to far....the occasional day trip out around the peak district.....takes about half hour to get there..........but hey cant wait to pull the roof down and cruise the highways and byways.....taking some snapshots of the scenery from my tf......may stop for a pint in a quaint country pub......sample a 99 and a bag of chips.......luv it.......

That first picture looked like Cheddar Gorge, we were there for a short break before Christmas in the ZR.

Going to Rosmalen in Netherlands in a few weeks time.

600 miles there, and 600 miles back.

For the weekend :-?

Went from Liverpool to Amsterdam, to Koblenz to Ghent last year (8 days) (great beaches around Amsterdam!)

Year before went to Freideshafen, Lake Constance (A drive around the lake into Austria, Switzerland and Germany) and back in 7 days
